Parque Minero de Macael, Macael, Valle del Almanzora, Almeria, Andalusia, 04867, Spain

Event date: Published:

The tourist space Parque Minero de Macael announced the start of receiving visitors on December 11, 2026. The announcement of the opening and the number for booking tickets were published on the object's card in the Google Maps service, and the concessionaire company will take care of the operation of the location.

The facility was officially unveiled on July 3, but open access is only now being introduced. The park's main attraction is a suspended route along giant sections of white marble: observation balconies and passages are located at a height of over 60 meters, which evokes direct associations with the famous path in Málaga.

The tours will last from two to two and a half hours. The route combines panoramic views with a story about the technologies of mining and processing marble, which for centuries has been exported to build monuments around the world.
