SPAIN HOLIDAY RENTALS, Jimena de la Frontera is a lot more like a wide open hill town which lies 20 kilometres north of another town, Castellar de la Frontera. It is an extremely large town with a regal Moorish castle that features a triple gateway as its entrance.
Outside of Jimena town lies Gaucin, which is about 23 kilometres away that you could reach through the highway or by walking the 16 kilometre trek. The road to Gaucin runs via a line of lovely cork oak forests and olive groves before reaching the quaint mountain village, which provides regal sights to as far as Gibraltar along with the coast of the other countries on a very clear day. Its a neat little spot for a stop over as you will find lots of accommodation and food options to satiate your appetite. The small town is even outfitted with a small eatery: the Nacional is a quaint little restaurant that serves simple meals and was established 125 years back with lots of history.
You will find a number of ways to achieve Jimena by bus or by train. The second will require a stroll of 13 kilometres before reaching the village even though it is much more of the uphill climb. However, theres a location to rest at close to the stop before you take the hike which serves drinks and food.
Bars are available for peoples refreshments after reaching this region but when you want to save yourself the hike, theres always the taxi ride for your convenience. The hike is definitely an adventure by itself because it passes by the nature reserve of Cortes.
The train journey from Ronda to Gaucin can also be another lovely method to see the countryside lined with the occasional charming small town. You are able to stop off in a particular station, Benaojan-Montejaque, to walk for an hour or so before reaching the ancient Cueva de la Pileta.
