"Andalucia in the South of Spain is one of the best walking areas in Europe – it simply cannot be rivalled for variety of scenery, climate, spectacular mountains, history, culture and some of the most interesting flora and fauna to be found anywhere in the world." And the Axarquia region is ideal base for a walking holiday with Walk Andalucia (www.walk-andalucia.com)
After a short drive east of Malaga you will be in the Axarquia region, one of Spain’s wild places preserved from the clutches of property developers, and in the shadow of the impressive peaks of the Sierras of Tejeda and Almijara. The Axarquia has a natural environment of great richness and variety – splendid diversity of wetland zones, mountain ranges and bird migration routes. It is a region of historic white villages with a distinctive Arabic influence scattered amongst dramatic hills and mountains, and where grape vines, mango trees and kiwi fruits thrive alongside ancient olive and almond groves. Many of these white villages have been preserved so that today they can still be appreciated in their typical and original condition.
