#神奇城镇-卡索拉、塞古拉和拉斯比利亚斯山脉之旅

Arrival at the rural accommodation we chose in Viana so that you can enjoy a GENUINE TRAVEL EXPERIENCE ON THE ROUTE OF THE SIERRAS DE CAZORLA, SEGURA AND LAS VILLAS. This journey will immerse you in the majesty of nature, rich history, and authentic traditions that characterize these enchanting lands. From the jewel of Cazorla to the picturesque villas, each stop on this route offers a unique experience in the heart of the Sierras de Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas. We start in Cazorla, a starting point that dazzles with its imposing mountainous landscape and rich history. The beginning of the route takes place in Cazorla. It stands out for its location in the Natural Park, declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO, offering impressive landscapes. Its history, culture and gastronomy attract visitors looking for authentic experiences. You will arrive at the late afternoon at the accommodation we chose with time to rest a bit before heading out for dinner at a local restaurant. After a full day I return to the accommodation to rest.

Have an early breakfast and go out to discover Cazorla. We start with a visit to the Yedra Castle. Built on the hill of Salvatierra on the Cerezuelo River, the origin of this fortress is Arab (12th century). In the fourteenth century, Archbishop D. Pedro Tenorio restored and consolidated the main tower. It offers a beautiful panoramic view of Cazorla. It houses a Museum of Popular Arts and Customs with a History section. In its dungeons the magical legend of the Tragantía is born. Next, we will visit the Ruins of the Church of Santa Maria. It is the most outstanding monument of the Adelantamiento. In Renaissance style (16th century) following the designs of Andrés de Vandelvira. It was built, like the square, on the bed of the Cerezuelo River. We will go down to The Vault that covers the Cerezuelo River was designed for the construction of the Church of Santa María in the Cazorla of the sixteenth century, solving the lack of communication between the banks of the river, and being the basis for the creation of a new urbanism and the growth of the population. It is an unmissable visit to live a unique experience among the murmur of white waters. We will end our tour with a Cerezuelo River Hiking Trail. We will depart from the Plaza de Santa María, upstream. The first section of the route is along the Cerezuelo River along a path that passes through wooden bridges. We will continue to the Malena waterfall, and we will skirt the Salvatierra hill, following the old stream, to return to the Castillo de la Yedra, and from there to the starting point. At the end we will invite you to eat in a typical restaurant before leaving Cazorla and continuing to our next Magical Town, Iznatoraf. Narrow streets with the scent of Andalusia, full of flowers. Its wall, its church, gives us reason to think about its enormous legacy, its melting pot of cultures over the centuries, from the Muslims to Christianity. You will arrive at the late afternoon at the accommodation we chose with time to rest a bit before heading out for dinner at a local restaurant. After a full day, return to the accommodation for a well-deserved rest.

Have an early breakfast and set off to discover Iznatoraf. We start by taking a walk through the Gates and Wall of Iznatoraf. The urban wall of Iznatoraf was declared an Asset of Cultural Interest in 1985. It preserves a large part of its canvases and many of its doors. The Puerta del Arrabal stands out, built in line with the wall. With a semicircular arch. Inside, it houses a relief of the Virgin framed by small pilasters and cornice. Next, we will visit the Clock Tower. It is located presiding over the Plaza de San Fernando. It consists of two bodies, the first is a square body in which the clock is housed and above it an octagonal base body. Finishing off the whole we find a body with bells. We will finish our tour with a small Hiking Route through the Viewpoints. Iznatoraf is the best balcony in the Sierras de las Villas, Cazorla and Segura. Don't miss our two viewpoints and fall in love with the views. At the end we will invite you to eat in a typical restaurant before leaving Iznatoraf and continuing to our next Magical Town, Chiclana de Segura. A town that seems frozen in time, a hidden treasure in the lands of Jaén. Its streets and white houses evoke a sober elegance that transports us to past times. You will arrive at the late afternoon at the accommodation we chose with time to rest a bit before heading out for dinner at a local restaurant. After a full day, return to the accommodation for a well-deserved rest.

Have an early breakfast and go out to discover Chiclana de Segura. We start by visiting the Mirador del Castillo. From this viewpoint, located next to the ruins of the castle, we will get impressive views of four provinces: Ciudad Real, Granada, Albacete and Jaén itself. Next, we will take a walk through the town centre: Located at a great height, embedded in a rock, Chiclana spreads through winding streets, whimsical corners and improvised squares. We will ascend to the Castle through the Panoramic Elevator. This 24-metre lift connects the lower part of the village with the remains of the old medieval fortress. This infrastructure offers the opportunity to access the castle while enjoying a unique perspective of the urban fabric and landscape of the area. We will end our historical tour at the Interpretation Centre of Jorge Manrique, the most important poet of Spanish literature of the second half of the fifteenth century, who lived and wrote in the castle of Chiclana de Segura. The Centre tells us through multiple panels, interactive and audiovisual screens, even in 3D hologram, the facet of Jorge Manrique as a warrior in the context of the internal wars of Castile for his throne, and that of a poet, with the famous Coplas on the death of his father. At the end we will invite you to eat in a typical restaurant before leaving Chiclana de Segura and continuing to the last Magical Town of our route, Orcera. Picturesque and interesting, a corner where great importance is given to water, its huge river pool or its old laundry room testifies to this. Colorful streets, full of flowers and crowded with pots. You will arrive at the late afternoon at the accommodation we chose with time to rest a bit before heading out for dinner at a local restaurant. After a full day I return to the accommodation to rest.

Have an early breakfast and go out to discover Orcera. We start with the visit of the Towers of Santa Catalina. They are a set of three fortified towers, from the Muslim period, located on a hill between the Trujala and Orcera rivers. Dated between the end of the twelfth century and the beginning of the thirteenth, at the time of Almohad control over al-Andalus. Possibly, the two twin towers had the function of an optical tower, and the third looks more like part of a rural castle. Next, we will visit the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption in the historic center of Orcera. With an exceptional façade, from the Franciscan monastery of the Virgen de la Peña de la Sierra de Segura, and windows of rich carving and careful ornamentation. The factory began in the sixteenth century, it was rebuilt in 1817, after the devastation of Napoleon's troops, and restored in 1939 due to the damage suffered during the Civil War. We will end our tour at the Maritime Province Interpretation Center. In this museum you will find all the information about the Maritime Province from its beginning in 1733 to its end in 1836, an exhibition of tools, clothing, furniture of the time and a structure simulating the ships that were made with wood extracted from our mountains. Before saying goodbye to this fantastic Route, we will invite you to eat at a local restaurant.
