What to expect

The Tabernas desert is considered one of the only true desert in Europe. 12.000 hectares protected enclosing a sedimentary eroded landscape, with average annual sunshine about more than 3,000 hours and below 250 mm rainfall per year. When Mediterranean’s sea covered the area of Tabernas and after millions of years to more than 500 meters depth, in times when the coastline was located at the foot of the Sierra de Los Filabres, several tectonic movements caused the gradual lifting of the sedimentary basin, settling the current landscape by erosion and over time.

During the route, you stop at all the micro landscapes which conform the desert as if it were a movie making reference to its geology, its vital features as well as its importance in the history of cinema past and present. Iconic films have been shot at this area as "Lawrence of Arabia", "For a few dollars more," "Indiana Jones", "Patton" or "Millenium".

Along the 4x4 route, the guide will stop to explain to you the most relevant geologic's freaks, the history and the environmental aspects of this unique place.
