Family activity in Sierra de Aracena Natural Park
Why it’s interesting? You will have the opportunity to enjoy with the colors of a typical mountain riverbank, where unique vegetation grows that supports a great biodiversity. We will walk alongside genuine stone walls typical of these landscapes and next to the Navahermosa ravine, a stream that will lead us to the vicinity of the beautiful town of Valdelarco. The appeal of this picturesque urban complex, listed as a Cultural Interest Asset, will surely surprise you. If you wish, during the free time in Zahara de la Sierra, you can taste delicious mountain products.
What is the itinerary? First, we go to the village of Navahermosa until we reach a rest area located in a spectacular melojo oak forest. At this point the trail that runs parallel to a small stream begins where a colorful riverbank forest representative of these mountains grows. Walking without difficulty we will reach the beautiful town of Valdelarco that will surprise us with its ancient flavor and its sunny white houses facing south. After walking freely through its streets and tasting some local product, we start the way back until we reach the recreational area where we will take the picnic.
