More information
These impressive rocks, which once inspired the painter Pablo Picasso, are one of the most emblematic mountain formations in the Natural Park.
Their vertical conglomerate walls rise almost 300 m and drop sheer onto a limestone base. Their original name, Bene, is Arabic and is already recorded in the Christian settlement charter of the 12th century.
The path up is waymarked and suitable for anyone with a minimum of fitness. From the summit, at 1,013 m, we enjoy a fantastic bird’s-eye view of the whole plain in front of us and the mountains around it.
