Step back in time on this dramatic and inspiring walk through one of Almería’s most striking historic landscapes.
Following the path of old, disused mining railtracks, we’ll explore an area rich in industrial history. The mining heritage is still visible all around us—set against a backdrop of towering mountains, deep gorges, and panoramic views.
Along the way, we’ll pass charming villages and the ruins of a abandoned Moorish mosque. After the hike, we’ll enjoy well-earned refreshments on a terrace with breathtaking views, before heading back.
