    This project is made as a possible natural, limited and open space arrangement alternative where  is located a camping and leisure site of all year round use. This project is included inside another bigger landscape’s intervention plan, “intervention in a miner’s town, la Torerera”. It is situated on the Riscoso’s Swamp’s North bank that is used as a water’s reservoir for the old miner’s exploitation which is now to be used as a nautical sport’s center. The territory is divided in two triangle-shaped areas: one for the common service emplacement and the remaining one, for the free camping zone without marked site. The first one is defined in its limits by little constructions that play like a frame but without loosing the environments views and improving the architectural vision from inside. The camping zone stayed the wildest as its is possible however clean and easily accessible across one road that control it, where there is a parking for leaving the cars to keep on walking towards the chosen place
