This natural area located northeast of the municipality of Mutxamel was declared Microreserve of Flora by Order of May 4, 1999 of the Ministry of Environment of the Generalitat Valenciana and is presented as a recreational area for hiking, cycling and enjoy nature. It is an area of ​​1114 ha. Montes catalog belonging to Public Utility of Valencia (# 41). Species with special protection and make this area a place of great natural interest are: - Vella lucentina: species whose worldwide distribution only goes microreserve of flora Bec de l'Àguila to the municipality of Monforte del Cid, distribution trzando an a crescent shape inside the region of Alacantí. - Sideritis leucantha subsp. leucantha: Valencia endemism. - Thymus moroderi: Valencia endemism and neighboring provinces - Teucrium carolipaui subsp. cinereum: iberolevantino endemism The conservation of this Flora Micro necessary to adopt a series of measures to prevent deterioration. Thus referring to the uses derived from this area a usage limitations are established: · Leave the paths or existing roads is prohibited. · The use of logging is prohibited. · No silvicultural thinnings or work within the microreserve may be made, except the following cases: - Scheduling tasks of naturalization and recovery of the characteristic thickets of the area, with selective and progressive elimination of the least developed feet of the pines, avoiding disturbance of the soil profile and already consolidated scrub. - Extractions by phytosanitary reasons or to prevent damage from falling on people or populations of protected or endangered species. - Thinning of pinewood postfire, in the event that the area suffered forest fires. Such thinnings must be covered by a specific multi-year program.

The square par excellence of the city is the Plaza de la Constitución, where representative buildings such as the Town Hall and the Arciprestal Church of the Immaculate Conception are located. From this square, its ocher and dark colors stand out, as well as the small rocky fountain.

The Rull Cave discovered in 1919 by José Vicente Mengual (Uncle Rull) when to go hunting with his dog following a rabbit, it entered into a hole, which also brought in a ferret to do it out not leaving any. The next day he tried to remove some stones from the hole and found the cave that bears his nickname. In the sixties, due to increased tourism, "Uncle Rull" open to the public decides renovating some hallways. Currently owned by the municipality, is conditioned and open to the public from September 16, 1995. The Cova del Rull has developed in Miocene conglomerates composed of rounded limestone gravel bowling and it covers a silty clay matrix and have a foundation of highly variable calcareous. At about 100 meters from the entrance of the cave , and going west on the road, a cross-fault to it, put in contact with marl conglomerates facies "Tap " . The massif is affected by subvertical joints and open. The cave owes its existence to both the dissolving action of water on limestone components of the clusters , and your drag action of silt -clay matrix , and which should be added the combined action of erosion and partial subsidence , usually located. The cave formation is also linked to other factors geological tectonic in nature , such as faults and folds , translated into a fracturing of the rock mass that allows the entry of water and its movement inside of it. Slowly and steadily the water flow has been eroding Cie and widening fractures which has circulated . Under certain conditions of pressure and temperature has been infiltrated water dissolved CO2 from the atmosphere or the existing ground by bacterial action , forming an acid but weak attacks the calcium carbonate of the limestone (insoluble in water ) , becoming calcium bicarbonate (soluble) , which is dissolved and transported by water. A change in existing conditions can reverse the chemical reaction , depositing calcium carbonate in the form of stalactites and stalagmites and releasing again CO2R is apparent that the growth process of the cave is only possible with a continuous circulation of water. If the flow stops , the development of the cave is limited to that caused by subsidence. Today, the Rull Cave remains one of the few Spanish caves open to the public up who are still continuing their training process. Tabletime From April to September, from 10.30 until 20.30 From November to January 14, from 11.00 to 17.00h From February 16 to March and October, from 11.00 to 18.30 January 1 and December 25 of each year will be closed to the public.

Construction related to the "Hell plant" that served to retain the water and divert it through a waterway to this hydroelectric power plant. It is one of the points to observe in the Serpis Greenway at Lorcha, along with the old train station, the plant itself and many abandoned places and the nature that has completely enveloped them.

The Crevillent Reservoir is a reservoir in Spain that is located in the municipality of Crevillent, in the province of Alicante, Spain and whose function is to regulate part of the flow from the Tajo-Segura transfer. This reservoir belongs to the Confederación Hidrográfica del Segura and was built in 1985 in the bed of the Barranco del Boch. It has a surface area of ​​108 hectares, with a maximum capacity of approx. 12.78 hm³ and a perimeter of banks of about 14 km. It has a gravity dam of 54 m in height and 360 m in length. The Crevillente dam, also known as the Crevillente Canal Regulatory Deposit, is located in the Barranco del Bosch. This ravine has a discontinuous flow, with a strong drainage, so that the contributions from the basin itself are practically nonexistent, being the main source of power the Canal de Crevillente. This Canal runs at levels lower than those of the reservoir so the water can either continue directly to the distribution system of the irrigable area, or be diverted to a pumping station that rises to the reservoir for regulation . The pumping station is located on the left bank of the Canal, in the vicinity of the foot of the dam, and the pumped flow reaches the reservoir through a reversible intake that runs in a tunnel under the right abutment of the dam.

We loved it!! the river is very small but nice :)

Cave network with guided tours. They house in its interior one of the highest vaults of all the caves in Spain, with 70 meters of height.
