Nerpio
Nerpio straddles the upper Taibilla basin in the Sierra del Segura of Castile-La Mancha, a position that has left its population distributed between the main settlement and outlying hamlets. This is the southern edge of Albacete province, where limestone ranges and narrow valleys form part of the wider Segura mountain country. The municipality is especially noted for prehistoric rock-art shelters, included within UNESCO’s Rock Art of the Mediterranean Basin on the Iberian Peninsula World Heritage property. Its mountain agriculture is also associated with the Nuez de Nerpio, a local walnut protected by a Spanish designation of origin.
