バザの峡谷・トップ4

Stone chimneys. They are formed mainly in dry, arid and hot areas. We find them in different parts of the world, such as Cappadocia, Turkey or Bryce Canyon National Park (USA). In addition to Cuevas del Campo, in Spain these formations are also found in the Ebro Valley, in the Aragonese Alto Gállego, in the Campo de Daroca region (Biescas) and in the Las Nas Reale desert

Coming from the direction of Cortez de Baza, shortly after the beginning of the gravel road I found myself in front of a gate with "No Entry" signs.

Impressive desert with interesting colors and rock formations.

Spectacular landscape for hiking or cycling. Every corner offers new perspectives. However, you should enter the area well prepared. You need to be in good shape and have enough supplies with you, as there is no water to be found anywhere.

Beautiful winding gravel road through the valley and along the Castril river between the village of Castril and Los Laneros. The road is quiet and wide, except for a small section where the path turns into singletrack. Perfect for the gravel bike. Tip: At Castril itself you climb steeply to the village and as a hiker you can still walk through the Río Castril gorge.

Beautiful trail in the Gorafe desert with fantastic views of the shapes eroded over the centuries by the effect of water and wind on the clayey soil.

Get ready to enter exciting territory. Carry enough water and food for the day, as there are not many options to find them without leaving the desert.

The trail veers off to the right to enter the Rambla de los Anchurones. The canyon of sand towers and clay walls reaches the dimensions of the great Arabian deserts or the parched plains of the North American states of Utah or Nevada. The walls of the gorge are not the Monument Valley of the Navajo Indians, but it is a fantastic landscape. The trail runs along the bottom of the boulevard until some zetas appear on the slope to the left and the ruts of the boulevard come out of the gorge. The curves of the boulevard can be shortened directly by the paths that jump the small hills of the dry riverbed. The first slope of the hairpins is the hardest section, then follows the ascent through the Loma de los Pinos with steep ramps and little by little the track leaves the labyrinth of ravines, steppes and gullies of the Gorafe desert.
