 About Murcia

The Privileged Surroundings of Murcia
The Region of Murcia enjoys excellent links with the rest of Spain through a full communications network which makes it easy to discover the area by car. Investments carried out on the improvement and amplification of the road network, destined in particular to the construction of motorways, have made it possible to enhance links between the different townships within the region and at the same time to guarantee fluid, agile contact by car with the rest of Spain. For travellers from abroad a rental car is recommended, and Murcia car hire is available at San Javier airport, the international airport of Murcia and many tourist destinations in the province.

From the geographical point of view, the region of Murcia stands out because of its multiple contrasts: dry vs. irrigated land, plains vs. mountainous areas, coastline vs. interior, vineyards vs. mesetas, factors which can no doubt be attributed to its location in a transitional area between the Sub-Baetic mountain range and the northern Sub-Meseta. Morphologically, the relief of the territory of Murcia falls within the influence of the Baetic cordilleras and shows an alternation between mountainous tracts, valleys and depressions, leading to extreme contrasts of altitude over short distances. Of the total surface area, the majority is situated between the altitudes of 200 - 600 metres.

The highest point in the region is the Revolcadores massif, followed by numerous other smaller mountain ranges located in the Centre and North-West of the province, such as El Carche, Sierra Espuña, La Pila, or Ricote, which boast the most important forested areas, with vast areas of pine trees. Special mention must be made of the Altiplano (Jumilla and Yecla), situated to the North-East of the region. It is a high plateau planted with vineyards from whose fruit the area’s renowned wines are produced. As we move southwards we meet alternating low cordilleras and valleys through which the Guadalentín and Segura rivers flow, with rich agricultural land and wide fertile coastal plains, the most extensive of which is the Campo de Cartagena.
