Climbing and Hiking in Cabezo Gordo

Just a stone's throw from New Sierra Golf, Cabezo Gordo challenges you to a multifaceted adventure. This 312 meter colossus is not only home to the famous Sima de las Palomas, but it is also a magnet for climbing and hiking lovers. For climbers, the Cabezo offers a unique challenge. Its walls, shaped both by nature and by ancient mining activity, present roads of varying difficulty levels. Although not for beginners, there are routes for all tastes, from moderate to extremely challenging. Hikers can explore paths that wind through the mountain, revealing panoramic views of the Mar Menor and the Cartagena countryside. Discover old mines, such as the fascinating Cueva del Agua with its underground lake, or venture out with the tunnel that crosses the mountain for a truly immersive experience.
