The towns of Fines and Olula del Río are an encounter with the culture of marble; figures and pieces of marble with inscriptions and inspiring phrases appear on the old railroad track. In Olula there is the famous giant head of a woman, on the other side of the road, you have to be careful not to pass it by. And nearby is the town of Macael for those interested in visiting the “white gold” quarries of the Almanzora Valley. Purchena is far from the road, it is a town with an Andalusian feel, with narrow streets with whitewashed facades at the foot of the remains of an old Muslim fortress from the Nasrid era. The railway continues to trace the slopes of the valley and cross seasonal boulevards over imposing stone bridges to the Tíjola station, which preserves a train engine from the glorious era of the mining railway and the railway buildings. The station is a bar with food service and a terrace on one of the platforms. In Los Canos there are remains of the old iron ore loading dock. The carts arrived loaded with material by aerial cables from the mining sites and by simple gravity they filled the train cars that were in the tunnels located under the loading dock.

The Senda de las Arrodeas is a circular route of approximately 13.7 kilometers that connects Las Arrodeas with El Pinatar in Olula del Río, Almería. Along this route, hikers can enjoy beautiful natural landscapes and panoramic views. I hope you enjoy exploring the Senda de las Arrodeas! 🌿🏞️

The Hermitage of Cristo de la Buena Muerte in Olula del Río, Almería, is a very characteristic and significant place. The sculpture of the Christ of the Good Death is carved in white Macael marble and made in a single piece. Its beauty and uniqueness make it a point of reference for people who follow the Christian religion. The hermitage is located in a special location, facing the town of Olula del Río, to which it dedicates its protection and shelter. This sculpture sculpted in marble is a testimony to the devotion and history of the region. If you ever visit Olula del Río, don't miss the opportunity to visit the Hermitage of Cristo de la Buena Muerte and appreciate its artistic beauty. 🌿🏰
