November 15 Hiking, archaeology and lunch in the Caravaca village of Barranda

An archaeological walk is followed by the chance to enjoy a “gourmet rucksack” in good company

A series of three Saturday events under the name of “Alforjas de Historia y Sabor” (knapsacks of history and flavour) are being held in the municipality of Caravaca de la Cruz during November 2025, each of them consisting of a morning’s gentle hiking, an archaeological visit and a well-deserved lunch.

The second of these takes place on 15^th November in Barranda with a visit to the archaeological treasures of the hill known as La Cabezuela, where the remains of old Roman watchtowers have been found. Alongside is Las Tosquillas, an idyllic spot with a picnic area where participants can enjoy their “gourmet rucksacks”!

Registration for the event is available online here at a cost of 10 euros + costs for adults and 5 euros plus costs for 5-12 year-olds. The tour begins at 9.00.
