The Cabo de Gata is not, as is often said, the location of well-known westerns and other films such as "For a Fistful of Dollars", "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" or "The Shoe of Manitu". This is located north of the city of Almería in the Tabernas desert. Nonetheless, when you drive through the nature park, you quickly get that real Wild West feeling.
