Jon Clarke (Publisher & Editor)TOURISTS will now be flocking to the Genal valley after a new bird route was unveiled as part of a multi-million euro project.
Benarraba will kick off the two-hour trail, the village is the centre of a 4.5m euro scheme designed to boost tourism within the Serrania.
The planned bird route, dubbed the Concoste – La Porta will pass through Cortes which will host special feeding zones for carrion birds.
Los Alcornocales national park in Cortes will also have a visitors’ centre and play area for children.
Local environmental officials also unveiled plans for a cork museum in Cortes and a Spanish War of Independence museum in Gaucin castle.
Whilst Benarraba and Gaucin are in, or overlook, the Genal valley, Cortes, where it seems from your editorial comment, most of the activities will be based, is, of course, in the Guadiaro valley. Not to be confused! Take a look at http://www.secretandalucia.com
