Sierra del Carche, Mountain summit in Region of Murcia, Spain
The Sierra del Carche rises to 1,372 meters above sea level, featuring limestone formations and diverse Mediterranean vegetation across its slopes and ridges.
The mountain has functioned as a strategic observation point since prehistoric times, with archaeological findings indicating settlements around its base through different periods.
Local residents of surrounding towns maintain traditional agricultural practices on the mountain's lower slopes, cultivating olives and native plant species.
Multiple marked hiking trails lead to the summit, with the main route starting from the eastern side and requiring approximately four hours for a round trip.
The mountain's position creates a microclimate that supports rare plant species, including several types of orchids found only in this region of Spain.
