Andalucía Self Drive
Get a real taste of Andalucía on this self drive holiday around the quiet southwest corner of Spain. Begin by immersing yourself in the lively city of Seville, with its unique mix of Moorish, Christian and Jewish cultures. Walk in the rolling Aracena hills through chestnut forests and olive groves dotted with sleepy whitewashed villages. Complete your holiday with time on the beautiful coast near Cadiz. How active?
The main attraction here is walking but the exact level of exertion is up to you. The Aracena Hills offer some fairly challenging hikes although there are also shorter walks if you prefer. We provide you with maps and walking notes so you can choose the routes that appeal the most. From your base near the coast, you can walk the coastline as well as the nearby Grazalema National Park. Hiking aside, you will no doubt want to explore Seville, Jerez and Cadiz as well as towns such as Vejer and Arcos de la Frontera - all of which is best done on foot.
