 El Valle is situated on the base of the Garruchal/El Valle mountain range in Murcia, which means we have 100’s of different walking tracks to follow, from 2 km to 20kms in distance. How do you find these tracks? Well, there are many places, but the best App we have used is wikilocs. If you download the app and follow a few routes starting from the entrance of the resort, we are sure you will fall in love with the countryside as well as the resort. 

El Valle also caters to younger children, with an onsite soft play located in the clubhouse. The soft play is perfect for all young children from 1-8 years old. Dive into the ball pit or head up to the second level and play with friends. The key is located in the clubhouse restaurant, you will need to ask a member of staff in Sandalo and leave your name and contact number. It is free to use for all residents and rentals.

 El Valle is also great for outside fun. There are 5 different play parks perfect for all ages on the resort. These parks have things for ages 3 and upwards such as swings, slides, climbing frames and for the daredevils, a zip line. 

 There are a few companies who do bike rentals and although there are plenty of routes off the resort to do, there is also the bike lane around the roads of the resort which you can use. If you go off the resort, you can head up to the neighbouring resort Altaona, or if you’re feeling adventurous, Garruchal. This is a hidden gem for cyclists and locals with great food surrounded by mountains and greenery. 

 Although there are many things to do at the resort outside of your property, something we always suggest is to enjoy the property you are in. All the villas have their own private pools and 5 different community pools to choose from for the apartment. You can put on some relaxing music while laying in the sun, maybe a barbecue to get the summery feel going or in the evenings curl up and watch a movie on TV. Some properties even have projectors in their gardens (outside film night, what an amazing idea!)
