Huerto Ribera

Carcaixent

My pick
Dr. Abdulmajeed Al-MudarraMy tip
“Book online; take the train from Valencia to Carcaixent, then a short taxi ride. Decline the optional “vermouth” tasting.”

A historic orange grove run by one family for generations in Carcaixent, the cradle of commercial orange growing in Valencia, which inherited the Andalusi irrigation system. You taste dozens of varieties, pick fruit yourself and leave with a bag of it.

Easy to reach, needs a car

Orchard near Carcaixent; parking on site and an easy walking tour. Book in advance. The C2 train to Carcaixent, then a taxi. Services in town.
