What to do in Vilamarxant

To kick off the tour, let’s make our way through the village’s narrow winding streets to the Neoclassical Santa Catalina Parish Church. Pay close attention to the many ceramic religious wall tiles that adorn the church’s façade. Some of these traditional artworks date back to the 18th century.

The landmark in Vilamarxant’s historic centre which most defines the village is the remains of the old fortress, known as the castle. These ruins can be traced back to the 11th century and feature an old Islamic tower that formed part of the original site. This grew over the centuries, with a cistern and other outbuildings being added along the way.

The tour is not over; there is still so much to see in Vilamarxant! Let’s now explore the village’s surrounding countryside. We highly recommend paying a visit to the visitors centre in Turia Natural Park for useful information on the local flora and fauna that lives in the park. Here, you’ll also be able to find out about the best hiking routes in the area.

Some of the hiking trails you can choose from include Yellow Route: las Rodenas, Red Route: la Pea, Green Route: Fluvial del Turia and Violet Route: Ruta del Agua. More information about these trails is on the council website. These trails not only immerse yourself in the local nature, but also lead you through the area’s rich hydraulic and traces of its wartime history.

Horse riding enthusiasts will be pleased to know that Vilamarxant’s nature trail IE-031, or Turia Route, is a great riding track that starts from the village and reaches Cabecera Park. If you love exploring nature on horseback, this is the plan for you! And to finish the tour, we suggest checking out Vilamarxant’s cultural events calendar to see what’s on. You’ll find interesting events for all ages and tastes. So when are you coming to visit this charming destination?
