アルコンタルのおすすめランニングルート

Recreation area with drinking water fountain

Both mountain ranges ensure that it hardly rains in this semi-desert area.

Nice shady spots, benches and beautiful views.

A spectacular route through the southeast of the peninsula between the highlands of Granada in the Baza area towards the Almendricos district, already in the Murcia region, and passes through the Almanzora Valley in Almería. A route that for decades crossed a railway line that transported tons of iron and other merchandise

breathtaking place ... so extraterrestrialy beautiful and interesting ..also totally isolated

The stage ends in Serón, a mountain town famous for drying hams, sausages, traditional sweets, cheeses, oil and other products of local gastronomy. The old train station is the best example of mining railway architecture on the Vía Verde Natural Trail of the Almanzora Valley, it has the passenger lobby building, with the characteristic British-style canopy, remains of the rails, loading docks, warehouses goods, rotating platform for trains, mineral loading, water tanks and garages. And it also has a modern planetarium and Interpretation Center. Local services are a couple of kilometers away from the road.

Bring lots of sunscreen

The restaurant is now unfortunately permanently closed. This is a real shame, let‘s hope someone else takes it on and another resto opens here in the future.
