Description

Walking through the olive groves and rugged hills of Andalucia, with a day in Seville

Andalucia, Spain's largest province, is only a few miles from Morocco and harbours many characteristics from its Moorish history. Rolling plains planted with sunflowers, olives and wheat stretch to the distant mountains and beyond the southern sierras, while long fertile valleys add to the varied scenery. Based near Algamitas, Cortijo Rosario boasts views as far as Seville, Cadiz and Malaga provinces. This beautiful renovated farmhouse sits in the heart of an agricultural community where life goes on much as it has for generations. Our walks take us through rugged hills, white villages, olive groves and the granite peaks of Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, and a whole day is reserved for Seville. Look out for special weeks where you can learn and practise Spanish whilst you walk.SPANISH WALK & TALK (See Dates & Prices page for special departures)Learn Spanish while you relax at our comfortable lodge in the Andalucian countryside, then enjoy using your newly learnt skills on your walks through Moorish cities and 'Pueblos Blancos'. Short sessions during the week will provide basic language skills, which you can practise with the local Spanish staff, helping you feel like a local in no time.
