Puerto Lobo

Near the recreational area of the same name and to several signposted routes of great interest, you'll find the Puerto Lobo Visitor Centre which lies within the Sierra de Huétor Nature Reserve.

The exhibition inside provides visitors with information on the natural heritage of this young mountain range, composed of limestone and where the water has gradually moulded a karst system with caves, galleries and stalactites. That same water which enters the rock subsequently emerges as crystalline springs which since the Muslim period have been channelled through dykes like that of Aynadamar, which supplied the city of Granada with drinking water. However, this park has many other attractions apart from its valuable natural resources since it is a place with a rich historic and cultural past, particularly interesting is its Moorish legacy and that it was a key witness to what was to become the Spanish Civil War.

In the reception area the centre also has a comprehensive shop selling attractive products, both local and those of the Andalusian Network of Natural Areas (RENPA). Finally, at the entrance to the building there is a beautiful garden where you can discover some of the species endemic to the park.

Don't forget to plan your visit and check the website to see the wide range of activities.
