Discover a fantastic fortress in a town brimming with things to see and do. Prepare a getaway jam-packed with activities.

Perched atop a small hill, Castillo de Busot, Busot Castle, is a great place to visit on a leisurely walk sightseeing. Located next to the historic centre, it is easy to get to on foot and affords great views of the surrounding countryside. The castle dates back to the Islamic period, yet the site on which the castle stands features ruins from as far back as the Bronze Age. Its prime location atop a hill with clear views was undoubtedly a strategic choice.

Busot Castle, situated in the province of Alicante, has been carefully restored so that visitors can easily access it and learn about its fascinating past. It's certainly a must-visit when in Busot. The dramatic geological formations of Canelobre Cave are another highlight in Busot if you fancy travelling further back in time, diving underground this time. In addition to a visit to the castle, you'll have plenty of chances to head out on scenic hikes or go mountain biking. Save this plan and start organising your exploration to this part of Alicante.
