Acknowledged in The Traveller (https://elviajero.elpais.com/elviajero/2021/09/16/actualidad/1631792062_844337.html) , supplement of the newspaper El País, as one of the most beautiful viewpoints of the region and of the peninsula, it is a platform built in 2004 that rises from a cliff and at its end is suspended several tens of metres above the Segura River, which flows just below. Surrounded by mountains full of pine trees, it creates a captivating landscape of the town of Blanca and a myriad of small houses with their orchards and vegetable gardens. From the viewpoint it is easy to contemplate spectacular sunrises and sunsets, or many of the aquatic birds such as herons, ducks and others that inhabit this ecosystem, as well as wild boars that come down to the river from nearby fields. It is a bucolic place to have a spectacular panoramic view of the heart of the Ricote valley. With Blanca on one side and the Azud de Ojós reservoir on the other, the “Alto de Bayna” viewpoint is one of the best places to contemplate the beauty of both.

A lovely area for a quiet stroll away from the hustle and bustle of the centre where you can go fishing, with good access by car and space to leave your vehicle while you enjoy the tranquillity among the trees on the banks of the Azud de Ojós. The variety of animals that can be seen in this enclave makes it magical, very enjoyable, especially when the moon is full. With spectacular views, if you pass by it is worth stopping for a while to admire the scenery and take a walk with your pets.

Situated at the top of the Sierra del Solán, the monument in honour of the White Virgin, enjoys a privileged position for the observation of the village of Blanca and its orchard, as well as the Ricote valley from the Sierra del Oro to the Sierra del Solvente with the reservoir at its feet. The sculpture of Anastasio Martínez Valcárcel is a 3.6 metre high carving in artificial stone dedicated to Our Lady the White Virgin. It was erected in 1985 on the initiative of a group of residents of Blanca who made the project and its financing possible. Visible from all over the town, even at night thanks to its characteristic nocturnal illumination, it is a symbol of reference for the locals.
