Getting there takes two hours from the state capital and an hour and a half from the city of Rioverde, since it is located on federal highway 70, at the junction with the communities called El Cañón, belonging to Ciudad Fernández, on a road that connects that municipality with San Nicolás Tolentino, Villa Juárez, Cerritos and that even connects with federal highway 57 on an adventure route as the slogan dictates.
An example of these adventures is the Las Golondrinas dam in the municipality of San Nicolás Tolentino, an immense body of water that just by looking at it, your blood freezes due to its depth, its contrast of colors and its wealth of fauna.
The Las Golondrinas dam was born in the 1970s and was inaugurated by the then President of the Republic, José López Portillo, at that time responding to the need to improve agriculture and water collection.
In the first instance, it gave a lot of work to dozens of residents of nearby communities such as Laguna de Santo Domingo, Ocampo, El Sermón, who took five years to build the 120-meter depth -one of the deepest in the state-, which is why which despite the droughts, is never without water.
The dam was originally built at Ranchito El Muerto, but the settlers were soon absorbed by the larger nearby communities such as Laguna de Santo Domingo and Las Golondrinas, the name the site eventually took.
