With an area of 100,000 acres, Tejada & Almijara National Park covers much of the mountain range that runs from the River Puente de Piedra in Alcaucín (Málaga) to Otívar (Granada).
Leaving from the port of Málaga, you’ll travel by road to the town of Frigiliana, about an hour from the port. Note the Moorish influence in its white houses and narrow, winding streets. Your journey through rural Málaga starts here, on a road suitable only for off-road vehicles.
At Acebuchal — a small, picturesque village deep in the mountains — learn about the area’s rich history. The steep mountains of Almijara show off all their splendor here. White limestone rocks form wild watercourses that enable a hasty rush of mountain spring water and rainfall down to the stillness of the plains. This landscape is a forgotten corner of Andalusia.
You will visit several other villages in the Axarquía region — the typical white villages of Andalusia.
Crossing the entire National Park, you’ll ascend to Competa — your ultimate destination — famous for its sweet wine. Competa sits at an elevation of 3,600 feet. Rest here with a taste of the sweet local wine, typical Spanish tapas, cheese and ham.
Return to Málaga and the ship better acquainted with the flora, fauna and customs of Málaga’s provincial countryside.
