It is an area blessed with an abundance of water and vegetation, offering a wide variety of facilities for public use.<\/p>\n<p>A must-see stop on some of the walking routes leading to the <strong>Pico de la Maroma, the highest peak in the Axarqu\u00eda<\/strong> at 2,068 m, with excellent facilities for a day out in the countryside.<\/p>\n<p>This is a large area where visitors have access to a range of facilities designed to enhance their enjoyment of the site. As well as barbecues, tables, benches and toilets, there are fountains, small waterfalls and lush vegetation, all of which add to the charm of this beautiful spot.<\/p>\n<p>The small waterfalls that form in the first few metres of the course of this stream and the thick vegetation that surrounds it are some of the natural attractions of this charming spot. <strong>What catches the eye is the impressive gorge carved out by this stream<\/strong> metres further down, before its waters flow into the nearby La Vi\u00f1uela reservoir. The best way to admire this natural canyon is to visit the viewing point set up beside the path. From there, you can see the beautiful shapes that erosion has carved out of the rockier sections of both the riverbed and the surrounding mountainous terrain.<\/p>\n<div class=\"evr-panel-content__container reflex-container-full tab-pane\">\n<div class=\"evr-panel-content__description\">\n<div class=\"evr-natural-espace-paragraph\">\n<p><b>Authorisation<br \/>\nAdministered by Alcaucin Town Council, it is this body that grants the authorisations. <\/b>Unlike other areas managed exclusively by the Regional Government of Andalusia, recreational use and camping at El Alc\u00e1zar are subject to a fee set by Alcauc\u00edn Town Council.<\/p>\n<p><b>Telephone: 952510002<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"evr-btn-collapse__circle\">\n<div class=\"evr-btn-collapse__vertical\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a large area where visitors have access to a range of facilities designed to enhance their enjoyment of the site. <\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":8477,"template":"","class_list":["post-8476","camping-y-caravanas","type-camping-y-caravanas","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/camping-y-caravanas\/8476","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/camping-y-caravanas"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/camping-y-caravanas"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8477"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/turismoaxarquiacostadelsol.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8476"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
