From the End of the World a beautiful view of the town

It is a veritable paradise of 4,722 square kilometers, designated as a Global Geopark by UNESCO in 2020, is a rugged semi-desert with deep, wide depressions, gorges, canyons, gullies and ridges with rock formations and cliffs.

There are panels at this viewpoint explaining the formation process of the Marchal Gullies, making it a very impressive viewpoint.

This viewpoint has become an outstanding place to watch the sunrise and sunset.

Hydrogeological studies show that the thermal waters of Alicún de las Torres come mainly from the carbonate aquifer of the Sierra de Baza and, to a lesser extent, from the waters of the Mencal aquifer. Scientists estimate that the aquifer is located at a depth of at least 650 to 800 meters.

The Troil Canal. According to scientists, they date back at least 3600 years ago. Due to the precipitation of calcium carbonate, these canals grew and continuously formed these amazing walls (some of them are 4 meters wide at the base, less than a meter wide at the top, 15 meters high and reach a length of almost 750 meters

The place is worth a short visit. There are some caves and a walk to the viewpoints is worth it. Be careful not to drive your car all the way into the town, as there is hardly any way out.

After descending from the viewpoints, the path along the Camino initially leads through beautiful forest areas and a gorge worth seeing into Purullena.
