Canillas de Aceituno

Highlight • Settlement

This beautiful town located at the foot of the Sierra de Tejeda falls in love with its narrow streets full of flowers. The name of the town comes from Latin and Arabic vocabulary for the production and trade of silk, which was the most productive activity carried out in the area by the Muslims.

Almijara Square, Cómpeta

Highlight • Settlement

Cómpeta is one of the beautiful white villages of Andalusia. The narrow narrow and steep streets are fascinating. The square in front of the church is perfect for a coffee break.

That was a tough trip! All elevation gain was in the first 45km. But it was worth it. Very beautiful villages and beautiful views. Lovely back along the coast.

Very nice tour, but heavy ramps before Frigiliana; and again and again wave follows wave. They are also flatteringly called “Andalusian asphalt bubbles”🤮
