Starting and ending in Ronda, the tour "Ronda And The Sierra De Grazalema" is a self-guided walking tour that takes 8 days. You will travel through Jimera De Líbar, Benaoján, Ronda and 5 other destinations in Spain. "Ronda And The Sierra De Grazalema" is a private tour which includes accommodation in hotels, transport, meals and others.

Encounter Moorish history, classic Spanish mountain-scapes and one of the prettiest villages in Andalucia. Deep in Andalucia is an "undiscovered" oasis of green where the classic Spanish mountain scenery of picturesque whitewashed villages nestled into the local hillsides will not fail to impress. The Sierra de Grazalema is a charming region for walkers. Discover a landscape of marvellous limestone sculptures, marked by deep gorges where vultures nest among the cliff tops. At lunchtime, take time out to replenish your energy with a round of tapas enjoyed on an outdoor terrace, then continue walking through an unspoilt countryside painted in earth tones, punctuated by brilliant white buildings against the soft grey-green of olive orchards, cork oak woods and Spanish silver firs. In the midst of these exquisite natural surroundings, you'll encounter 'pueblos blancos' with exotic Moorish names like Benaocaz and Jimera del Ibar, which recall centuries of disputed borders between Arab and Christian kingdoms. At the end of the week, you reach the town of Ronda, one of the prettiest in Andalucia, with its intriguing mix of Moorish and European monuments.
