Discover some of the most emblematic and surprising corners of inland Alicante province on a tour that combines tradition, nature, and history. From the birthplace of the famous Jijona nougat to the impressive geological formations of the Canelobre Caves.

Tour Highlights:

Turrón Museum (Jijona) – An essential visit to the birthplace of *turrón* (traditional nougat). Learn about the production process of this ancient sweet and enjoy a tasting of *turrón*—the star product of the local gastronomy. The production process can only be viewed on weekday mornings (Monday–Friday), excluding holiday periods.

Canelobre Caves (Busot) – Venture into the heart of the mountain to discover this natural treasure. The caves are famous for their impressive 70-meter-high vaulted ceiling—one of the tallest in Spain—and their striking, unique geological formations.

Busot Castle

An ancient, medieval-era fortress perched atop a hill overlooking the town. From its vantage points, you can enjoy excellent panoramic views of the region and the surrounding natural landscape.

Santa Faz Sanctuary

One of the most significant religious sites in the province of Alicante. The sanctuary houses the venerated relic of the *Santa Faz* (Holy Face), the focal point of a centuries-old tradition.
