Walking holidays for Independent Travellers

We have a selection of itineraries:

     
  A Journey on Foot through the Sierra de Aracena, where you move on from village to village
     
  The El Moro Walking Week, a week of daily walks that return you to our farm each afternoon

 
 

 

The Sierra de Aracena
The rolling hills,1000 - 3000ft of the Sierra de Aracena, 100 kms north west of Seville, provide perfect walking country. Tracks connect the pretty white villages. These ancient caminos offer gentle walking through a great variety of landscape. Lush secret valleys, past abandoned farms lost in tangles of aromatic cistus and rock roses. Along the high ridges and far distant views of hills crowned with Templar castles or remains of the C10th Moorish Calipate.

Village Vista
 		There are some climbs but nothing that is beyond any reasonably fit person who walks at home.

Spring comes early this far south. The mimosas, cherries and the first of the wild narcissi in February. Peonies and lavender soon follow and the villages fill with the heady scent of jasmine and orange trees.

300 year-old cork groves

Autumn is the time of the sweet chestnut harvest, a blaze of changing colours with a gourmet's feast of wild mushrooms under foot.
