Partaloa is characterized by its location between steep mountains within the Almanzora Valley, surrounded by a rocky landscape that is difficult to access. Large blocks of stone, known as "Los Desplomes", seem to surround the houses of the town from different angles. Despite its dry environment, the region abounds with varied flora and fauna. In particular, almonds and olives are cultivated. The passage of the Ciscarisco Strait is a mountainous route near the town that offers some difficulty for hikers but is certainly worth trying because it is a route that is an adventure through landscapes of wild nature. Many other routes are also offered to the visitor who wishes to explore a territory of impressive views, ideal for taking pictures and capturing good memories of their stay.
