Hiking

The Andarax river is born in a town very close to Padules, this town is Laujar de Andarax. This well-known river in our province passes through Padules and its section is a route full of nooks, falls, pools and canyons. All this route receives the name of Los Canales de Padules.

Hiking

The Canales de Padules, between the Sierras de Gádor and Sierra Nevada, are a natural jewel in the Alpujarra of Almería. This stretch of the Andarax River, recognized as a Natural Monument, offers a landscape of pools and waterfalls. Part of the Three Towns Trail, the route reveals ancient grapevines and remains of mills, providing a refreshing experience next to the moderate flow of the river. Las Canales de Padules are a refuge of peace and authenticity, defying the conventional expectations of Almería.
