My tip“Open only on Saturday and Sunday mornings; suitable for children, and it can be combined with the nearby Bocairent caves (15 minutes).”
An Almohad fortress from the 12th–13th centuries crowning a mountain village in the Sierra de Mariola; its cylindrical tower houses a small museum and offers a view over the sources of the Vinalopó river.
Easy to reach, needs a car
Almost only by car; the village is mountainous, with alleys climbing to the tower (10 minutes). Cafés in the village. Open at weekends in the mornings.
Address
Carrer del Castell, s/n, Banyeres de Mariola
