Grab your walking shoes and get ready to explore this incredible municipality. You’re going to love everything that you find here.


Located in La Hoya de Buñol in inland province of Valencia, Yátova is an excellent destination for hikers: a landscape sprinkled with historic structures is calling out to be explored on foot. Make your way to this municipality and get ready to savour traditional dishes that are bursting with flavour.

What to do in Yátova

Once you have wandered the narrow streets of Yátova, we recommend taking a look at San Isidro Church and Los Santos Reyes Parish Church as well as El Arco Street. Next on your to-visit list should be an interesting museum collection that will tell you everything you need to know about the different civilisations that have left their mark in the destination. You will also want to visit the ice house which is still standing in the centre.

Now it’s time to pull on your walking shoes and explore the surroundings. You will be surprised by the number of points of interest you will find here. Within the municipality borders, you will find small dry stone buildings that were used as shelters during bad weather. These are known as Cucos. 

Sitting on the banks of the river Magro is Tabarla Natural Municipal Landscape, which has beautiful scenery, incredible biodiversity, trails that are suitable for all levels of walker and a recreational area where you can cook and relax. Another well-known trail in Yátova will take you up to Motrotón, a hill overlooking the local scenery. This is an intermediate level walk.

Las Palomas Cave is another beauty spot you won’t want to miss with its waterfall, car park and facilities for cooking up a tasty paella. Add to your list of trails to walk the GR7, which will take you to El Pico de los Ajos, an old fortified Iberian settlement which you will want to take a look around. Other options include the PRV-115, which starts in the municipality and will immerse you in beautiful scenery, and the PRV-148. Yátova is full of surprises. Start planning your getaway to explore them all.
