Cabo de Gata Natural Park is a little known semi desert just north of the city of Almeria in the region of Andalucia in Spain.
Cabo de Gata constitutes a small exposed part of an extensive volcanic chain, between 6 and 15 million years old. It is located between Spain and North Africa and currently appears submerged almost in its entirety, emerging only in Cabo de Gata and on Alboran Island.
Mining villages and ruins are spread all over the park.
Some of the most notorious spaghetti western movies have been shot around here and the Tabernas desert.
I thought it would be the prefect hiking destination for a quick week away.
Light pollution being very low it also made for one of the most beautiful starry nights I've had in a very long time.
