A rural retreat to the Region of Valencia for some much-needed tourism in nature always promises to be a great experience. The incredibly diverse scenery of Castellón, Valencia and Alicante beautifully complements the colourful rural traditions. The villages here stand as guardians of Valencian history and the true havens of local cuisine. Ready to escape the grind and head out into the countryside?
Rural Tourism in Castellón
Dive into wild coves tucked away in Sierra de Irta and marvel at extraordinary geological wonders like the Órganos de Benitandús in Alcudia de Veo. The Castellón countryside is also home to cherished traditions, such as the pilgrimage to San Juan de Peñagolosa Sanctuary, and Medieval treasures like the village of Culla. Is this enough temptation for a rural retreat to Castellón?
Rural Tourism in Valencia
If you are looking for a mini-break to the Valencian countryside, the picturesque villages in Los Serranos and El Rincón de Ademuz are a great place to visit. We also suggest going on a walk through the vineyards of La Plana de Utiel-Requena, or watching the flamingos and herons in flight in the L'Albufera Natural Park.
Rural Tourism in Alicante
Marked by its mountainous terrain, the scenery in Alicante never fails to delight. Its natural beauty is present in the many hiking trails across the province. The famous gorge walk in Vall de Laguar is one of the most popular outdoor destinations in the Region of Valencia. And the stunning naturescapes of La Font Roja and the diverse marine life of Tabarca Island Natural Reserve are also worth checking out.

Nowadays, Otos has more than 30 sundials with several designs and features. Year after year, either private or public initiative, new ones are made. But the sundials in Otos are not only more or less romantic instruments which tell us the time in a serene and ancient way. They are also works of art with a certified quality by the signatures of their authors. And, moreover, in many of them we will find an intention more or less explicit to pay homage, explain, agree and reclaim the culture, the language, the history, the characters and the land. The route of the sundials has become an indispensable visit for schools, associations and citizens in general interested in gnomonics and art or, simply, people loving culture who don't resign themselves with the traditional touristic offer.
