Despite their excellent communications and proximity to the Madrid-Murcia highway (A-30), this unique region has preserved all the ancestral Murcia’s flavor and characteristic lush orchard gardens, surrounded by the Segura river, which flows gently among impossible peaks, creating impressive gorges lulling their course through the villages of Abarán, Archena, Blanca, Cieza, Ojós, Ricote, Villanueva del Río Segura and Ulea, composing timeless landscapes, aromatized by the orange and lemon blossom from their antique orchards.
History and beauty mixed in old “moorish” paths. Murcia’s best kept secret: The Ricote Valley.
There are many activities and spots to visit. Some of them must be booked in advance. Please do not hesitate to enquire about it.
