Traiguera & Cervera del Maestre Excursion

At 9:30 am, we'll meet in front of the Peniscola Tourist Office and head to Traiguera, with a travel time of around 30 minutes by minibus or coach.

The first stop will be a visit to a thousand-year-old olive tree farm. Here, we'll learn about the care of the trees, the olive harvesting process, and the steps in olive oil production. Tasting of olive oil paired with local cold meats will be included.

After 1 hour at the olive grove, we'll proceed to the village of Cervera del Maestre for a guided tour highlighting main monuments such as the Church of the Assumption, the Baroque bell tower, and the old Medieval market. We'll stop outside the 12th-century castle and visit the Oil Mill Visitor Centre.

Next, we’ll return to Traiguera to visit the Royal Sanctuary Virgen Fuente de la Salud. We will explore its various rooms, including the old pilgrims' hostel and the medieval hermitage, noting the beautiful frescoes in the complex.

Our excursion will conclude at 2 pm back at our starting point in Peniscola.
