      Small town with limited facilities (a bar at the station, a recommended restaurant in the Hotel and a small supermarket close to the station), mainly popular with climbers and therefore you will find many lodges and more or less legal/wild camping spots. Most hikers will come here as it is the endpoint of the Caminito del Rey, but the area around is worth to explore as well.

        Very beautiful town. Very lively. Starting point for the Caminato del Rey.
