The incredible nature reserve of the Sierra Grande de Hornachos rises above the valley of the Matachel River. The Mirador del Peñón de Marín is the highest point with 850 meters above sea level. Spectacular views of the landscape below.

At the foot of the Sierra Grande de Hornachos we will arrive at the town of Hornachos. Its most important monument, the Iglesia de la Purísima Concepción, towers over the city.
