How long does it take to walk from Barrio las Barracas into Benijofar centre - any history of flooding?

Hi 

I was going to fly to Spain from the UK to view a property in Barrio las Barracas in April, but all travel has been cancelled and so I am hoping to rebook later in the year.  I do drive, but I wanted to know roughly how long does it takes to walk into Benijofar from Barrio las Barracas (thinking of when I get older, and also just for a general daily walk).

Also, I understand there is a reinforced flood wall along Barrio las Barracas and I was wondering if anyone could tell me how efficient this has been and also how often flooding occurs?

Any general information about the Benijofar would also be good, i.e, fiestas, markets, evening entertainment/places to visit in the evenings.

Thank you so much.  

Jo

Hi Jo,

Do you mean Benejúzar, rather than Benifar?


Kind regards,

Kim

Hi Jo,

Sorry, I know Benijófar really well, but I've only ever driven through Benejúzar - hopefully, someone from that village will be able to give you some first-hand experience.

Kind regards,

Kim

Thanks so much Cheryl.  This is really helpful.  I thought it was going to be a much longer walk - it was putting us off going to view the property, but this has put our minds at rest as its not too far.

Hi Kim

Thank you so much.  We are also looking at Benijofar too, so if I find a property there, I may well have questions for you.  Take care and keep safe.

Best wishes, Jo
