• In the Despeñaperros Natural Park, past the hamlet of Miranda del Rey, starts the signposted Molino del Batán path.
  • This lovely walk of barely 9 kilometres one way takes its name from the ruins of old mills, or fulling mills (batanes).
  • Of Arab origin, the Batán mill stands in a lovely ravine through which runs a stream covered by a lush riverside forest.
  • On the way we also come across the ruins of a flour mill, and the path ends at a cistern whose water is kept for putting out fires.
