Discover Guatazales this summer: Honeybees, wine and wilderness await
From ancient apiaries to award-winning almond, honey, wine & olive oil, explore Bullas' legendary Honey River valley

Nestled in the heart of Murcia's breathtaking mountain ranges, Guatazales in Bullas, Murcia is ready to welcome travellers seeking an extraordinary summer escape where nature's bounty flows as freely as it did twelve centuries ago.
Today known as El Río Mula, Guatazales holds the distinction of being one of the most magical and mysterious places in the Region of Murcia. The name itself tells a captivating story about when the first Arab explorers ventured into this fertile valley on a scorching summer day. They christened it "Wād-Easal" or the Honey River, with "Wādi" meaning channel and "Easal" meaning honey in Arabic.
Over the years, Wād-Easal evolved linguistically into Guatazales, preserving a clear link to its Arabic roots.
What seemed like a desert mirage proved to be an extraordinary natural phenomenon. The amazed explorers discovered honey literally flowing down the river walls, streaming from ancient beehives nestled in the rock crevices. The intense summer heat had caused the honeycombs to melt from within, creating rivers of golden honey that cascaded into the waters below while bees buzzed busily around their natural sanctuaries.This summer, visitors can delight in exquisite olive oils, honeys and wines that define the area's character.
Summer experiences that awaken the senses
Beekeeping adventures and honey tasting
Visitors can immerse themselves in the ancient art of beekeeping through engaging workshops that combine education with pure enjoyment. Meet the happy bees of Guatazales in their natural habitat, explore working apiaries and learn about traditional honey production methods.
The experience culminates in tastings of raw honeys, premium extra virgin olive oil and the unique wine that captures the essence of this legendary place. 

Wine tastings among the vines

The surrounding Bullas region offers exceptional wine tasting experiences, with organised visits to local wineries showcasing the finest vintages. Guests can savour the region's most distinguished wines while sampling Guatazales' celebrated extra virgin olive oil, artisan sourdough breads, local meats and bakery delights.
These tastings provide an authentic taste of the area's culinary heritage.
Horseback adventures along ancient paths
Experience the magic of the Mula River from horseback, following hidden trails that wind through the valley's most secluded corners and enjoying a delightful picnic while steeped in nature.These guided rides reveal the anecdotes, stories and mysteries that have shaped this land for centuries, offering an unforgettable journey through living history.
Natural wonders and outdoor pursuits

Adventure seekers can explore cascading waterfalls that provide refreshing respites from the summer heat, while guided transfers make it easy to discover the charming town of Bullas and its surrounding attractions (available for groups of 6 or more).
The region offers endless opportunities for nature lovers to connect with the unparalleled landscape.
Bullas DOP wine tourism excellence
Guatazales serves as a gateway to the prestigious Bullas Protected Designation of Origin wine region. Through carefully established collaborations with local wineries, visitors can enjoy comprehensive wine tourism experiences including visits to the wine museum, guided tours through historic vineyards and exclusive routes through the most emblematic corners of the Bullas DOP.

The combination of regenerative beekeeping practices and the atmosphere of wine creates profound experiences that foster awareness and appreciation for the region's natural and cultural heritage.
