What to do in Benlloc

The predominantly agricultural village of Benlloc makes the perfect destination for a country getaway. It is also a popular spot among lovers of live music, as every July Feslloc comes to the village.

This great event coexists alongside historic sites built by ancient civilisations, such as Els Fondos, an Iberian tomb.

As you wander around the village, you’ll find yourself wanting to pop your head into the parish church. This place of worship looks like a fortress and has one of the most historic bells in the Region of Valencia. Continue and before too long you’ll find Fuente de los Tres Caños and a wash house. Just outside the village there is a water-powered flour mill which, though is in ruins, speaks a great deal of local industry. Keep walking and you’ll reach Loreto chapel as well as Mare de Déu del Adjutori chapel, which has an elegant façade, and a recreational area.

Benlloc has a beautiful landscape of gently rolling hills that are a wonderful place to take a walk. As you gently amble along, you will find yourself enveloped in fields planted with traditional crops as well as wild vegetation. Here you will find the remains of ancient wells and cisterns as well as a 1st century road: Via Augusta.
