Technical Description
About 6 km away is Jódar, the largest town in Sierra Mágina. We'll be on the A-401 road. Jódar stands out for the offer of services, and for the castle that hosts one of the two Visitors' Centers of the natural park of Sierra Magina.
Our tour runs along the eastern side of Sierra Magina. Little by little and for 18 km the landscape of olive trees on a subdesert mountain.
To the right we will find the detour to Bélmez de la Moraleda. The waters of the Garganton River assigns to the green landscape and the presence of gardens. The main attraction of the town is the famous faces of Belgium, a curious phenomenon that attracts its own and strangers to this small town.
On the A-401, our walk will continue for 12 km towards Huelma. Almost at the end of the tour we find the pedany of Cabritas, a scattered rural habitat that hides dozens of ancient mills and gardens that for centuries, and from the Middle Ages made this place a vergel of fruit and vegetables.
Attention to the detour in the A-324, which in only three km leads us to the centre of Huelma, a town that offers us restoration services, and two jewels of the Andalusian Renaissance, the Church of the Immaculate Conception, the work of Andrés de Vandelvira, and the castle that watches the village from above.
