El Torcal de antequera, Spain


Last January I was in Spain and I visited a park called El Torcal.
The Sierra del Torcal mountain range is located south of the city of Antequera.
It is one of the most impressive karst landscapes in Europe.
The area was designated a Natural Site of National Interest in July 1929, and a Natural Park Reserve of about 17 square kilometres was created in October 1978.



I have never been to such an impressive stone scenery! It was great to walk there.  You really feel small walking along those great formations of stone.


When I was there it was very windy and cold but on a good sunny day you really should go and walk around the Park.


 There are several walking routes in the karst area!


Really worth a visit!!
