EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ALAJAR

One of the prettiest towns in the Sierra, Alájar is overlooked by the towering Peña de Arias Montano, a sensational rough outcrop with a church and belfry. From the Peña is a stunning view of Alájar, its fields of olive trees and the gently undulating plain south of the Sierra.The houses in Alájar group around a modest paseo (square) and its narrow, cobbled streets radiate outwards from here. Like the neighboring village of Linares, many houses in Alájar have their own unique cobbled portals. There are many well-preserved houses here with architectural elements typical of the Sierra.
