Visit the White Washed Villages of Andalucia

Visiting the major Andalusian cities of Seville, Cordoba, Malaga, Cadiz and Granada in Southern Spain can be beautifully complemented by adding a stay or a visit to one or more of the famous white-washed villages of Andalusia, known as los Pueblos Blancos.

These dazzling white-washed villages, such as Ronda, Arcos de la Frontera, Zahara de la Sierra, Antequera, Setenil de las Bodegas, Frigiliana, and Grazalema, are situated along the coastline and in the Sierras. These charming locales, set in stunning locations, offer a slower pace of life where people appear happier and even healthier.

Exploring the white villages offers a gateway to breathtaking scenery. Your journey might lead you through the Serranía de Ronda, Los Alcornocales Natural Park, or Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, each boasting ravines you wouldn’t expect to find so near the coast. These regions are ideal for hiking, with opportunities to stay in unique accommodations. Discover a variety of artisanal goods. The local cuisine is crafted for leisurely enjoyment, with delights such as artisanal cheeses, traditional pastries like buñuelos, dishes like migas or gazpacho, and the classic mollete bread rolls. Don’t miss the chance to savor organic wine from Ronda.

You can white villages visit year-round, but spring and autumn are particularly pleasant due to milder temperatures. A final tip for experiencing the charm of the white villages: avoid rigid planning. Allow yourself to embrace the moment, uncovering traditions, meeting welcoming locals, visiting artisan workshops, and finding those places where everything feels just right.
