Las Canales Calisthenics Workout Park

The calisthenics park "Workout Las Canales has been carried out by 6 young people from the municipality through the programme European Solidarity Corps coordinated by the association E-Cultura y Ocio.  
The young people measured the grass area of Las Canales, located next to the river, and designed the structures for its integration without altering the green space; an initiative that they have carried out over 6 months, to promote outdoor sport, and which has also led to its environmental recovery.

Galvanised steel structures have been installed in this space, consisting of: 

  • 1 pool dance bar
  • 1 strength multistation
  • 2 parallel bars
  • 2 pull-up bars
  • 3 trx anchorages


The structures have been installed so that they blend in as well as possible with the natural environment. A climbing initiation area will be added at a later date, among other planned actions.

Routes and hiking

Enjoy the surroundings and the natural wealth of Blanca on hiking routes.

Blanca and her vegetable garden

Duration: 2 hours and 30 minutes.
Distance: 8 kilometres.
Optimum time of implementationThis route is recommended all year round, although in summer, in the central hours of the day, precautions should be taken against the sun and the high temperatures.
AccessThe starting point can be reached from the MU-553 road which leaves from the N-301, from the MU-514 road on the Blanca-Abarán section, or via the MU-520 Ojós-Blanca road.

This itinerary shows the distinctive elements of the Blanca landscape that are a source of resources for the local population: its traditional fruit and vegetable garden, the riverside vegetation along the Segura riverbed, the palm groves, its waterwheels, irrigation channels and traditional dwellings.

Skirting the Ojós weir

Duration: 3 hours.
Distance: 9 kilometres.
Optimum time of implementationThis route is recommended all year round, although in summer in the central hours of the day you should take precautions against the sun and the high temperatures.
AccessThe starting point can be reached from the MU-553 road which comes from the N-301, from the MU-514 road on the Blanca-Abarán section, or via the MU-520 Ojós-Blanca road.

The Azud de Ojós reservoir was built in 1978 to increase the amount of water available for irrigation and to divert water from the Tajo-Segura water transfer.

It has brought about a notable change in the landscape by introducing aquatic species of flora and fauna that intermingle with the cultivated and mountain landscape, and it is considered a Wetland of Importance for Aquatic Birds. This variety of diversity is one of the characteristics that makes Blanca a unique municipality.

Hermitage of San Roque and La Navela Mountains

Duration: 4 hours.
Distance: 10.5 kilometres.
Optimum time of implementationThis route is recommended all year round.
AccessThe access is via the signposts at the Blanca access roundabout on the Murcia A-30 motorway or from Blanca via the MU-553.

This route arose from the need to divide up one of the approved trails in the area to make it easier to visit this important natural space. The path that runs through the Navela mountain range and returns along the road parallel to the Barranco de San Roque ravine to the hermitage of the same name has been selected. Throughout the route you will enjoy an impressive panoramic view of the Blanca market gardens, the Azud de Ojós reservoir and the Barranco de San Roque ravine, passing near viewpoints where you can stop and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
