Pinoso, or as it is also known
Pinos is nestled in amongst mountains right on the Murcia/Valencia
border at a position 450 meters above sea level, it became independent from
Monóvar in 1826 and is a prosperous town primarily active in vine
monoculture and the extraction of salt and marble. For people looking
for real Spain and true Spanish rural lifestyle this is it. The countryside of
its extensive district provides a contrast between the green pine groves
of the Sierra del Coto and the white limey soil of vineyards growing the
Monastrell grape and produce highly-rated red wines. Rosé, white and
Fondillón dessert wines are also produced and form part of the 'denominación
de origen' wine area of Alicante. The Bodega Co-operative Wine cellar
has a storage capacity of 14,000,000 litres. Pinoso produces and
extracts salt, which is then processed and marketed by Torrevieja. The
town also extracts marble to be worked by the inhabitants of Novelda.
The countryside of its extensive district provides a contrast between
the green pine groves of the Sierra del Coto and the white limey soil of
the vineyards. Major festivals are celebrated in August and this is a
week not to be missed, 1st - 10th, the whole town takes it as an excuse
to basically close up and make merry, a fantastic insight into
"real Spanish life". In February, the 'Día del Villazgo' fair
is held to commemorate its independence as a municipality. Pinoso
is only approx 24km from the
local Spar town, Fortuna, here you will find the steam rooms and water
therapy services, swimming pools, hot springs and massage facilities.

experience of Pinoso and can say that everyone welcomes visitors from
abroad and tries their utmost to help you in whatever it is you are
doing, this is just as well as the town is growing more from foreign settlers than natural
inhabitant growth. The population is currently quoted as
6645 and the town is situated in the western section of Alicante and is
easiest reached from Pinoso, Novelda or Elda; take the road through Monóvar.

pleasant pastime. The area is what is often described as true Costa
Blanca inland life on the border of Murcia or Costa Calida.
