關於
The Cresta del Gallo (Spanish: Cresta del Gallo) is a mountain formation with an altitude of 523 meters, located in the pedanía of Garres y Lages, within the Cordillera Sur (Murcia), and near the city of Murcia, Spain.
The name of the mountain ("Rooster's Crest") comes from the set of large reddish rocks located at its peak, which give it the appearance of a rooster's comb. The largest of these formations is popularly called La Panocha by locals due to its resemblance to an ear of corn. Together with the Sierra de Carrascoy, to which it is a natural extension, it forms part of the Regional Park of Carrascoy and El Valle.
On April 7, 1931, by Royal Order 59/1931, it was declared a natural site of national interest.
