房源位置

La Ribera del Gaidovar is an historical enclave, nestled in the Natural Park and close to the village of Grazalema. For centuries, the flour mills and olive oil mills of the Ribera of this river have been operating, when the area was quite populated and there were still rural schools. At the end of the 20th century, the activity of the last mill of Ribera ceased. Other buildings that can be seen in the valley are small farms and bodegas (the area was a major wine producer up to the end of the 19 century).
Grazalema is a beautiful and small white village of the Sierra de Cadiz, which retains much of its architecture and traditional ways of life. It is located in a privileged enclave within the Natural Park with a diverse fauna and flora and unforgettable landscapes. A small town, with an original architecture very well preserved and very interesting anthropologically, such as the Toro de Cuerda in July, or the historical recreation of "Los Bandoleros", near the end of September.
The gastronomy, very natural, is based on local products, Payoyo cheese being one of the best in Spain, the Iberian pig raised in freedom, pata negra, as well as the consumption of game, partridge, deer, rabbit and so on.
Of interest are the ecological oils and wines made in the mills and nearby wineries and the leather work that is made in the neighbouring town of Ubrique.
Activities
In winter the snow arrives to Grazalema for a couple of days and it creates a beautiful white landscape. Autumn and spring are the best times to hike. You can follow the many lovely routes that link the white villages of the Park, or climb the mountains for breathtaking views. In summer the nights are lively and fresh with numerous terraces open until well into the night. There are many places to swim and refresh, such as the public open-air swimming pool in Grazalema and Arroyo Molino in Zahara de la Sierra, not to mention the nearby coast of Málaga and Cádiz.
