Santuario Virgen de la Esperanza

A very unique place to visit
Church and its settings are peaceful and stunning - the walk along the river is beautiful - good toilet facilities plus restaurant if you need it.
Entrance is free but donations welcomed
You can also light a candle for a loved one
Definitely a place to visit

Such a beautiful, tranquil spot for quiet reflection or beautiful walks along the river. Quite steep and lots of steps but disabled parking quite close to the entrance. Only used restaurant for drinks and snacks but it does meals.

Lovely place to visit. Restaurant food is lovely and very reasonably priced. Well worth a visit.

Fantastic location and a must see for tourists...plenty of toilets on site shop and restaurant. Great for walking along the river.

One the most beautiful spots to picnic and bbq on the river right next to the church!

It's a beautiful moving place in a lovely setting on the banks of the Rio Segura. This was my second visit the first 9 years ago on a coach trip, today's with 2 couples and late afternoon hardly anyone there so you could really enjoy the truly peaceful atmosphere. At one point I was alone in the sanctuary which was amazing. It is a place that is so worth the visit.

Big car park, free with toilet’s. Walks, picnic areas, play area for young children. Not forgetting the church in the mountain, gift shop, museum and restaurant. A must to visit if in the area.

Beautiful place where you can find calm and say pray, of course if you want. There is beautiful small church made in a rock mountain. There is great restaurant with kind people working there. Going down to the river for a walk you will find a place where you can have barbecue, park your car there. There are places with barbecues so you don't need to bring your one. We visit this place every time we are in Calasparra.

This was an unexpected revelation and well worth a visit. Hard to explain the impact the place has on the visitor. It has a serene, peaceful, and beautiful quality. It also has a very good cafe/restaurant on site and plenty of toilet facilities.

Amazing church cut into rock with a river walk close by , view point s and some good restaurants

Buikd into the cliff
With beautiful garden below where you can walk beside fast flowing river. Akso goid redtaurant at the site

Loved put trip here. Plenty of parking and toilets. The chapel is particularly tranquil and interesting museum too. Do not forget to see the wax dolls that have been left with prayers. Enjoy a walk around or a seat by the river. Take some change to light a candle.

Stunning place to bring a visit to the cave of the virgen of hope and afterwards a walk through the beautiful nature.

Beautiful location, Santuario Virgen de la Esperanza is built within the rocks. You can see everything in 30 minutes but it is worth the drive. There are some restaurants, and if you are into hiking you can take some routes varying from 9 km to 4 km along the Segura river. A little part looks like a jungle so pretty refreshing when it is hot outside

A very special place. There is also a nice trail to walk nearby.

Absolutely stunning place

Well worth a look in if you are in the area. Fascinating little church built into the rock face.

Loads of parking,picnic areas , restaurant, wonderful little church

the place is great!this place must definitely be visited! it is meant for children, which is important. there is a small playground, a restaurant and a picnic opportunity!

Unbelievable! I was so impressed, didn’t expect it to be so great.
