Llanos de Espiel

Leaving from Espiel (Cordoba) along the old N-502 just 3 kilometres from the junction next to the cemetery is one of the best viewing points in the province of Cordoba. Shortly before kilometre 388 is a turn-off to the left leading to a large esplanade without trees and completely open to the sky dome.

It is a must to visit and enjoy the spectacular heavens. It is one of the best places for observing magnificent Milky Way in summer and an unrivalled place from which to view the horizon to the east, north and west.

It is an excellent point to see the shooting stars that are so frequent in August. It is also one of the most highly recommended places to meet in a group and set up the telescopes; parking and access are easy,and it is spacious and completely flat.
