Monday 28th April

View from Kiko Park


We left Aranjuez around 10am we made a slight diversion to Lidl due to the fact that they had litre bottles of San Miguel for a euro. A strange decision as we aren’t intending to drink for a while….well that’s the intention. Off to the Ocana road where the sat nav sent us back to Aranjuez. Still every cloud and all that as we passed a huge Leclerc Hypermarket on the southern edge of Aranjuez. Diesel was 10 cents a litre cheaper so we topped up.  We arrived at the Kiko Park rural campsite around 2pm. This was a few miles outside the town of Villagorda half way towards Valencia. It was an isolated site in the mountains next to some reservoirs / lakes. A  good location if it wasn’t for its isolation, lack of walking information and the Super speed railway line that was about 600 metres outside the gates. Not much noise from this as it goes past in micro seconds. For a Monday there were lots of families on the site, this made me think that it must be another local fiesta but when it got to around 5pm all the families went home. However they must have all had showers before they left as there was only luke warm water left when we went for ours. In some respects a good site…large pitches, small swimming pool etc. The reception office looked like it had been a church in the past. However because of its isolation only good enough for an evening stopover.
