Rural tourism is a return to folk tradition and deep-routed
customs and trades sucha as animal husbandry and the
typical produce of kitchen gardens.
Many tourists have a wonderful time being able to
carry out this type of activity, found mainly, but
not exclusively, in the towns of Huércal Overa,
Vélez-Blanco and Sierra Cabrera.
Those who most prefer risk sport will find their
special corner in the climbing, trekking and potholing
that can be carried out mainly in the caves of Almanzora
and of thel Karst en Yesos de Sorbas.
Horse riding, deeply rooted in the area as seen in
the important role of these animals in folk festivals,
is one of the easiest activities to find. On can choose
to ride either on beaches or in the mountains.
