📍 About the location

Millares is a small town located in the interior of the Comunitat Valenciana, in the same gorge through which the JE car river runs. Behind them, is the Muela de Cortes of great landscape and natural value.Archaeologically, it is a rich town due to the numerous remains found attached to different eras and cultures. The Barranco de Nacimiento itself has witnessed different populations since prehistory, as can be seen in the habitat deposits that are scattered throughout it. But what stands out most in these sites is the cave art that was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1998.
