Spring
Spring arrives marked by the blossoming of the citrus trees, walks in the fruit groves and experiences linked to the orchards and water. It is a time of scents, gentle trails and the landscape at its finest.
What to do
Festivals, culture, nature and experiences to live the valley in every season.
There’s always time to come back
The Valle de Ricote changes with the seasons. The colours of the fruit groves change, as do the light on the mountains, the scent of the lemon trees and the way of life in each village. That’s why every time of year offers a different way to discover the area.
The valley’s calendar brings together traditional festivals, cultural events, culinary experiences, outdoor activities and events linked to the local identity, allowing you to experience the destination beyond just a one-off visit.
Because here, every season transforms the landscape. And every visit allows you to discover a different Valle de Ricote.

During the summer, the evenings take centre stage. The squares come alive with concerts, cultural activities and festivals such as Murmullo, where art and the landscape interact against the valley’s unique backdrops.
Autumn is the perfect time for a walk. Footpaths, cultural trails and viewpoints are now the best way to explore the region at a leisurely pace, whilst traditional cuisine revives dishes centred around hearty stews, fresh local produce and seasonal ingredients.
In winter, the valley reveals its most peaceful and authentic side. The villages return to a leisurely, everyday rhythm where traditions, local markets and popular celebrations keep the region’s identity alive.
