Sabores del Camino gastronomy route in Caravaca de la Cruz

Local restaurants in and around Caravaca join forces to promote their mouth-watering specialities!

A new initiative launched by the Town Hall of Caravaca de la Cruz has gained the support of 30 local bars and restaurants, all keen to promote their culinary expertise under the banner of the “Sabores del Camino” program.

The establishments taking part form 5 separate routes based on the different paths taken by pilgrims to the Holy City of Caravaca (the Camino de Levante, the Camino de la Vera Cruz, the Camino de San Juan de la Cruz, the Camino Espiritual del Sur and the Camino del Mediterráneo), thus offering a chance not only to eat well but also to discover aspects of the historical and gastronomic heritage of the city. Among the specialities on offer are tapas, snacks and desserts, ranging from traditional favourites to the most innovative recent creations of the chefs involved.

The 5 routes are as follows:

Camino de Levante

Las Delicias del Horno, La Despensa del Peregrino, Bar 33, La Bodega, Restaurante el Progreso, Bodegón Isi, Cafetería el Horno

Camino de la Vera Cruz

Arce Bar, Qué Giro, El Edén, Felymar, Cafetería Plaza

Camino de San Juan de la Cruz

Full details of the Sabores del Camino establishments and their specialities can be found at www.saboresdelcamino.com, and the routes remain in operation at least until the end of 2025, with more than 3,000 route maps already having been printed in the style of the “credencial” used by pilgrims during the 7-yearly Holy Jubilee events.
