Rich Ricote valley 'ideal for outdoor enthusiasts'

Situated in the north of the region of Murcia, the abundant orchard is a haven for hikers, cyclists, horse riders and anyone who loves getting out and about and back to nature.

According to Whatsonwhen, the valley itself - one of the most stunning and undiscovered areas in the region - was the last Moorish stronghold in the Spanish Levante.

"The Moorish heritage can be seen on the fertile plains, the result of the Arab irrigation system, abundant with vineyards that produce some very palatable wines, as well as fruit trees including peaches and citrus fruits," it says.

Villa holiday makers who stay in the Mar Menor Golf Resort and visit the valley may have a raft of beautiful photographs to bring back home as the resort itself is slap bang in the middle of Murcia's magnificent countryside.
