The Río de la Miel trail is one of the places with the greatest diversity and botanical richness in the entire Los Alcornocales Natural Park.

Romantic, old stone bridge over the Río de la Miel. From here the hiking trail leads under shady trees. The name of the brook translates as "honey river". It is believed that this name derives from the existence of numerous beehives in the area.

Beautiful, old bridge at the "Escalona Mill". It is also the end of the hiking trail along the Río de La Miel.

The entrance to the Sendero del Rio de la Miel trail is initially rather sobering. The "path," although unpaved, is several meters wide, and the gnarled cork oak forest is mostly fenced in. Don't turn back too quickly, because at the stone bridge over the Rio de la Miel, everything changes. The path becomes rockier and noticeably narrower. Just below the bridge, there are several small waterfalls. Things get even better at the Arroyo de la Miel – just turn left behind the ruins of the old mill.
