In the Royal Factories museum building: information on the Source, trails and the Los Chorros webcam.

The Riópar Tourist Office is in the village, in the same building as the Museum of the Royal Factories of San Juan de Alcaraz, and is run by the Town Hall. It is the place to go before heading up to the Source of the River Mundo or setting off into the hills: there they give you the village map, the paper leaflets of the Riópar Trail Network and the guide to the Calares del Mundo y de la Sima Natural Park.
What they sort out for you
The most common question is how to get to Los Chorros and whether that day there is a toll and free parking. They also advise on the routes of the municipal trail network, which has guide maps of the most popular ones and is entirely on Wikiloc, and on the natural park's regulations, which govern some activities. If you want to see whether the waterfall has water before setting out, the Town Hall has a Los Chorros webcam on its website.
The office is also the contact for the museum, in the same building, which tells the story of Spain's first brass factory. The Town Hall warns that the museum is temporarily closed for works; ask at the office whether it has reopened before counting on it. For the rest of the complex, the guided visit to the Royal Factories takes in the workshops and the workers' village.
Hours
In winter it is open Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 to 13:30, and on Fridays and Saturdays also in the afternoon, from 17:00 to 19:30. On Tuesday to Thursday afternoons they will attend if you request it by phone at least a day ahead. In summer it is open Tuesday to Saturday from 10:00 to 13:30 and from 17:00 to 19:30, and on Sundays mornings only. It is closed on Mondays all year. The Town Hall does not publish the exact dates when it changes from one timetable to the other, so if you go in spring or autumn, call beforehand.
Contact and tips
The phone number is 967 435 230 and the email, turismoriopar@hotmail.com. If you arrive on a Monday or outside hours, on the Town Hall's website you can download the Riópar map, the museum leaflet, the maps of the trail network, the natural park guide and the Sierra del Segura area map.
A good full-day plan is to call in at the office first thing, go up to the Source before the car park fills up and come back in the afternoon to Riópar Viejo, with its church and the castle ruins. If you are coming by motorhome, the municipal area is in the village itself.
