swimpool
A natural swimming pool, also known as a natural swimming pond or eco-pool, is a body of water designed to look and feel like a natural pond while providing a clean and safe environment for swimming. These pools use biological filtration systems, such as aquatic plants and microorganisms, instead of chemicals like chlorine, to maintain water quality.

Water is purified through a regeneration zone with plants and gravel.
Microorganisms in the filter area break down contaminants.
