Three quarters of hour away.

This is the only declared desert in Europe. This is the area where one can perceive in a most extreme way the dryness of Almeria.

Included in the municipality of Tabernas, limited by the mountain ranges of Filabres & Alhamilla.

The peculiarity of the desert, with more than 3.000 hours of Sun yearly, has made possible the instalation of a Centre of Solar Energy (One of the biggest in Spain).

The beauty and singularity of the landscape has attrated from many decades ago by the film industry, using these natural scenes for exterior filming, some of the "Far West" villages have been conserved and can be visited. Films like "Indiana Jones, King of Kings, The good the Bad and the Ugly, Conan, Lawrence of Arabia, and many more have been filmed here. There is also a natural reserve next to the Western Village "Mini Hollywood", with girafes, lions, ostraches, etc... This Desert has very similar landscape, vegetation & fauna to the one`s in North Africa.
