The natural parks of Grazalema and the Sierra de las Nieves, both Biosphere Reserves, lend themselves to peaceful walks on foot, by bicycle or on horseback, or fishing, kayaking, climbing, immersed in the pristine nature rich in a varied fauna.
The area of the Strait serves as a port of call for all the birds that migrate to Africa, a privileged observatory for observing cetaceans.
The Natural Parks in Andalusia offer a very wide variety of landscapes and an extraordinary ecological wealth.
The whole province allows you to carry out many types of extreme activities and sports within the Natural Parks: in the hinterland you can devote yourself to hiking on the Grazalema Sierra, climbing, horse riding trails; on the coast surfing, kite surfing, diving and other water activities are practiced; horse rides through kilometers of beaches are also very famous.

This area is located on the southern slope of the Sierra Nevada and is characterized by arid rock slopes. Crossing the valleys you can visit villages built in Berber style, terraced slopes.
