What to expect
Your journey begins in Valencia, where you'll board a bus for a serene ride towards the Cuevas de San José. As you glide along on a boat trip within these caves, you'll be captivated by the stalactites, stalagmites, and columns adorning this remarkable site nestled in the Sierra de Espadán. You'll also have the opportunity to traverse subterranean paths that transport you into a magical realm shaped by nature over thousands of years.
Your adventure continues in Peñíscola, a town whose ancient heart is a true gem. Wandering its cobbled streets feels akin to travelling back in time. Enclosed by a formidable medieval wall, it retains its charm with distinctive spots such as Plaça de Bous and Plaza de Santa María. Be sure not to miss the Bufador, a natural spectacle where seawater filters through rocks, and the Casa de las Conchas, a building adorned with hundreds of seashells that has become a symbol of the city.
Upon reaching the Castillo del Papa Luna, perched atop a crag, you'll be treated to awe-inspiring views of the Mediterranean. This fortress, once home to Pope Benedict XIII, boasts sturdy architecture that offers intriguing insights into the history of the locale and its significance during the Middle Ages. During your leisure time, you can amble along the beach, peruse craft shops, or savour local cuisine.
Before heading back, you'll explore the Artillery Park. Here, the coolness of its gardens blends seamlessly with impressive defensive structures.
