Environment




We are in a privileged place, you could say that Gor, the municipality in which the Cave Houses of Atochal Orígenes are located is the gateway to the famous Geopark of Granada. This was declared a World Geopark by UNESCO in 2020.


As amazing as it may seem the destination GEOPARQUE DE GRANADA, has 7,722 km² covering the regions of GUADIX, BAZA, HUÉSCAR and MONTES.


This park is located in the heart of the Betic Mountain Range, surrounded by some of the highest peaks of the peninsula, such as the Sierra de la Sagra and Sierra Nevada. Since prehistoric times, the unique geology and climate of this area have deeply influenced the life and cultural traditions of its inhabitants.


HERE you will find more information, maps and guides of the territory.


If you will allow us the license, the description of this destination is as unique as it is surprising. Known by some as the Spanish Colorado Canyon, by others as the Iberian Cappadocia itself. This environment has a singular beauty that is not found anywhere else in the Iberian Peninsula.


These arid but beautifully unique lands protect a crucial and distinctive segment of Europe's geological heritage. The silent story of its rocks fascinates those who venture to know its deep history. Every year we are visited by archaeology lovers and geologists in a relentless search for the remains of the past.


The proximity to the city of the Alhambra is one of our best bets.


Another of the many reasons to visit us is because if you are a lover of nature and history, you will be surprised to be introduced even more in every corner of the province, but without missing the most important jewel of the architecture of Granada.


In just 25 minutes by car you can reach the famous Alhambra of Granada, known as the Red City.
