Ruta del agua

We begin our walk along the Fluvial section, a stunning riverside trail where you’ll experience the beauty of fast-flowing rapids, the refreshing sounds of nature, and rich historical sights. Along the way, we’ll visit a 19th-century mill that hides a surprising and colorful mural inside, and explore ancient caves once used for food storage during the Arabic era—an atmospheric step back in time. Wander through a tranquil corridor of eucalyptus trees, soaking in the fresh forest air, before we pause beside the river to enjoy a peaceful picnic lunch surrounded by nature
