    Hiking

    Benecid is a small district of Fondón located in the heart of the Alpujarra Almeriense, in the upper valley of the Andarax River and at the foot of the Sierra Nevada. Its quiet streets and agricultural terraces offer an ideal setting for strolling with views of the ravine of the same name. Of particular note are the 16th-century Church of San Juan Bautista and several historic fountains, such as the one in the square and the Pábilo fountain. It also houses the Río Andarax Center, a unique ethnographic space showcasing the region's traditions.
