Hiking

From the old gold mining village of Rodalquilar, 2 walks depart through the Cabo de gata along the remains of the gold rush that took place around 1833. You have a walk of about 6 km and one of 12 km. From the museum, follow the signs with "Cabo de gata" with each time the number of distance to be covered.
