the ore extracted was inspected on the ground in front of the mountain. Samples were taken here and it was determined whether it was worthwhile to continue in the mine

Hiking

One of the most intriguing aspects of Rodalquilar is the remains of mining activity, such as abandoned mines and industrial structures scattered throughout the valley. The coastal defense castle, built during the reign of Charles III, is also a sight that highlights the rich history of the region.
