This is a great opportunity for lovers of archeology, and that through it all visitors can see first hand how to perform the excavation work, going into the cave accompanied by Professor Michael Walker will offer an explanation of the site .
The flagship night in the Cabezo Gordo will occur on August 12 with "The Tears of St. Lawrence" or "Perseids", ie the shower of shooting stars every summer invites us to observe the sky and a little bit closer astronomy.
Since the Civic Center, at 22h, you get a free bus.
Therefore it is an appointment that astronomy enthusiasts should not miss.
The Cabezo Gordo is situated in the municipality of Torre Pacheco, between the hamlets of Balsicas, Northwest, San Cayetano, the Northeast and Dolores de Pacheco, the South East.
If we come from the southern sector of the Campo de Cartagena San Javier should reach in order to move towards Dolores de Pacheco and from there will access to service roads to the vicinity of Mt.
If our source is Murcia, the highway will come from the Mar Menor, which we leave for the exit Dolores de Pacheco tells us it is not necessary to reach this population as the Cabezo Gordo is right.
We can also take the exit that leads to Los Alcazares, and in this case the Gordo Cabezo we have left.
