Carcagente Orange Grove Tour

At the scheduled time, we'll meet at the entrance of the Huerto Ribera. This grove dates back to the 19th century, and during our visit we'll discover everything about how they grow high-quality oranges.

The tour will begin by admiring the large warehouse and walking through the gardens to see the century-old orange trees and various flowers. Enjoy the pleasant aroma of orange blossom.

We'll reveal traditional cultivation methods while explaining how avant-garde techniques have been incorporated into this sector. Learn about the various citrus fruit varieties, including Sanguinelli, citrus yuzu, mano de buda, citrus caviar, calamondin, and kumquats, and their differences.

You will see how the irrigation systems, pruning, and grafting work. Participate in a competition where a winner will receive a diploma as a qualified farmer. An activity will allow you to harvest up to 1.5 kilos of oranges or tangerines by yourself.

After 2 hours and 30 minutes exploring the orange grove, we’ll enjoy a tasting of artisanal liqueurs with fruit flavors.
