A paradise of biodiversity - Albacete

All the majesty of the Calar del Mundo, touched by the human hand.

We will traverse the northeast hillside of the Calar del Mundo and will go over vast pine forests, holm-oak and oak groves as well as mountain pastures to finally reach the Torca de los Melojos. This is one of the most singular and attractive spots in the natural park. This walk will allow us to contemplate a wide range of ecosystems, all of them containing interesting plant and animal species. The human hand becomes apparent in this area of the park and there will be much to learn from it.

The name of the walking trail honors this spot. One of the places with greater biodiversity in Europe. An adventure that will allow us to enjoy the immense natural majesty of this protected area, always having plants as our protagonists.

Álvaro García Valero

Biologist and naturalist, but above all a lover of life, I consider the Segura and Alcaraz mountain ranges as my second home, as well as the great steppes of the southeast of Albacete. I dedicate all my efforts to the study, understanding and dissemination of the natural and cultural values of this fantastic region of the Iberian Peninsula.
