The L-382 road runs along the gravel route of the Greenway before disappearing into a short tunnel. There is a nice wooden viewpoint over the valley.

Enciso has been declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO because 3,000 dinosaur footprints have been found here. This paleo-adventure park shows you interactively how these prehistoric animals lived millions of years ago. It also has swimming pools, geysers, adventure circuits, a climbing wall, a restaurant and two cafeterias.
