VERNAL EQUINOX IN OLIETE

Hello!

This weekend we have a special walk with Kevin and Jean to see the Vernal Equinox (Equinocio de Primavera) in Oliete. It will be a 30 min walk, plus an almuerzo, of course.

These photos show the sun light going through the mountain hole and the visual effect of the snake sneaking down the hill as the sun moves.

See attached video in Spanish to know more about this magnificent natural event!
