    Castril is a beautiful historic village tucked away high at the end of a ravine. At the bottom of the ravine and below the village flows the Rio Castril, a river in a lower gorge with a walking path along it. Characteristic is the castle on the rock and the many flowers that adorn the village. Also a nice village to eat or drink in one of the many bars.

    Population that is under the Peña de Castril, a very large stone that casts a shadow on the core. Close to the Portillo Reservoir, and governed by the Sierra de Castril, which has the same name as the town.

    Castril is a wonderful destination in the province of Granada!
    Castril Castle: Located on La Peña, this castle offers stunning views of the town and its surroundings. Although it is in ruins, it can be visited on guided tours
    Historic Center: Stroll through the cobbled streets and white houses adorned with flowers. Don't miss the Church of Nuestra Señora de los Ángeles
    Sendero de la Cerrada del Río Castril: A spectacular walk through walkways and wooden bridges over the Castril River
