Mojácar Council Proposes an Interpretive Visit, Encounters With Disney Characters and a Fun Parade

This Saturday, December 30th, marks the last interpretive visit of 2023 in Mojácar, and it will be very special as it is dedicated to families and will take place in the village’s old town.

This visit, which is the only one dedicated to families in Mojácar this year, closes the hiking program for 2023. It will only be repeated next Christmas. However, the hiking program, organized by Mojácar Council, will continue into 2024 until March.

The interpretive visit to Mojácar village, especially for families and organized by the Local Council, will start at 11 am on Saturday, December 30th, beginning from the Plaza Nueva viewpoint. The visit lasts approximately two hours and covers a planned route of about three kilometers, passing through the most emblematic points of the village’s old town. It is classified as low difficulty. The visit is free and led by a professional guide, Javier Rodríguez Arias.

Given the special time of year and the target audience of children and their parents, the tour will have magical characteristics. The most emblematic corners of Mojácar will be explained with the help of fantastical characters who will be the common thread of the story explaining the evolution of Mojácar and the peaceful coexistence of three cultures: Christian, Arab, and Jewish, which left their mark throughout the old town.

Children will also learn about the legend of the possible birth of Walt Disney in Mojácar, the house where he could have been born, and the story that took him and his mother to the US. It’s an experience not to be missed.

Disney’s imagination could have been inspired by Mojácar when looking for characters and stories, and it’s not uncommon to see Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Aladdin, and others walking through its streets and squares this Christmas, greeting residents and visitors and even posing for photos with them.

After the visit, a nice surprise awaits the children, adding the finishing touch to an unforgettable experience for the families who attend.

Also on Saturday, December 30th, as part of the Christmas 2023-2024 activities scheduled by the Local Council, the Disney characters will once again visit Mojácar village from 7 to 9 pm to meet their young friends. This coincides with a fun parade starting at 7:30 pm.
