Ready to explore the great outdoors around Marbella and pick up an interesting story? Then choose from a variety of 35 walks in the mountains and around the white villages, for every level and taste. Discover a fascinating part of Andalucía, including Marbella's Sierra Blanca and the Sierra de las Nieves National park, the Serrania de Ronda, spectacular El Chorro, and much more. From cave houses to Roman ruins, from Moorish castles to Catholic churches, from the Smurf Village to the Art Village, the mountains and villages are a vast museum covering thousands of years of history. Each walk is enriched with inspiring stories, facts, or legends about the rich cultural and natural heritage, making the experience more fun. The walks are half or full-day excursions from Marbella for beginners to experienced hikers.
This guidebook explores six of Andalucia's most beautiful Natural Parks - the Sierra Nevada regions of Aracena, Grazalema, Los Alcornocales and Gaucin, La Axarquia, the Alpujarras and Cazorla - along the great belt of the Cordillera Betica mountains. The 36 half- and full-day walks are mostly circular, ranging in length from 4 to 21km: some involve steep ascents and descents but all are within the capabilities of a reasonably fit walker. The routes are based around the villages of Aracena, Grazalema, Jimena de la Frontera, Cazorla, Bubion and Competa, all of which lie within protected nature reserves. Year-round walking is possible, but the area is best enjoyed March-June and September-October. Includes detailed route descriptions, clear mapping, plenty of background information about travel, food and drink, language and communications and the author's recommendations for the best places to stay in or around southern Spain's most beautiful mountain villages, many of which date back to the Moorish period. Rising to almost 3500m, the Cordillera Betica offers some of the finest year-round walking in Europe, and wrapped within this mighty range are some of Spain's most beautiful villages and trails.
