2/7 Strolling on greenways


Throughout its varied geography, this region has a series of hiking and cycling routes perfect for all levels.

The Sierra Espuña Regional Park is an ideal destination for those nature lovers who seek to conquer every corner in a very different way.

This amazing lunar landscape is suitable for all audiences.

Another amazing experience is the Descent of the Almadenes Canyon, an expedition that begins in the town of Calasparra and is perfect for nature lovers.

Of course, for those who opt for quieter experiences, their sandy areas are a unique setting for horse riding or simply to enjoy silence and tranquility.

The Regional Park of the Salinas and Arenales of San Pedro del Pinatar is much more than a singular landscape of colors and surprising fauna.
