Sierra de Aracena Full-Day Trip Itinerary

We'll collect you from the meeting point for an approximately 10-hour day tour.

The route will traverse the Dehesa de Sierra Morena, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 2002. This area is inhabited by various animals including "brave bulls" and acorn-fed Iberian pigs, essential for producing Jabugo "jamón Ibérico." The town of Jabugo is renowned for this product.

We will arrive at the historic town of Aracena, visiting the Aracena Castle, built from the thirteenth to fifteenth century, important in the Middle Ages for its strategic location. Additionally, we will explore the Gruta de las Maravillas, an underground network that opened to the public in 1914, one of Spain’s first caves for public visits.

On our way to Seville, enjoy the beauty of the Mediterranean forest of La Peña de Arias Montano. We will stop at Almonaster La Real, which houses what is believed to be the oldest mosque in Spain.

We will return to Seville at 7 pm.
