All the small, white villages have made Andalucía well known.
Our closest village is Valle de Abdalajís and it is located approx. 60 km northwest of Málaga
and approx. 20 km southwest of Antequera. The finca (a finca is a Spanish country property)
is 3,5 km from the centre of this village. The valley of Valle del Guadalhorce, also called
Valle del Sol, runs from Málaga and passes by several other villages, among them Cártama,
Pizarra and Álora. Oranges, lemons, olives and almonds are grown here and in the northern part
also some grain. The speed of life is a bit different here from what you find along the coast.
People live much like they have done for the last generation or two. You still see the shepherds
walking around with their goats.
We recommend a rental car in order to enjoy all the activities in the area. |
