A 360° panorama of the Cabo de Gata - Nijar natural park, from the top of this peak, the highest point in the region at 493 meters above sea level. The park is of volcanic origin, and is the first maritime and terrestrial park in Andalusia. The view from the summit is magnificent, whether from the sea or the land.

The volcano has been extinct for a long time, so you can safely explore this immense circular depression of the region’s most famous volcano. The access path naturally follows the course of a dry stream bed (rambla). We are in the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, one of Spain’s most arid regions with its steppe-like vegetation.
