Hiking
Benaoján is a beautiful mountain town that, although it is a province of Málaga, is part of the Grazalema natural park. With about 1,500 inhabitants, this town is in the shadow of large limestone walls, where many enjoy sport climbing.
In the neighborhood of the train station, following the trail PR-A 253 or SL-A 139, you can visit Cueva del Gato. It is an impressive system of permanent water galleries that has a total length of more than four kilometres. On the other side is Montejaque, where there is another exit known as the Cueva del Hundidero.
