An absolute must-see. The Summer Palace is especially worth a visit.

The Castillo de Alhama de Granada is a historic castle located in the centre of Alhama de Granada, near the Iglesia del Carmen. This castle was built on the foundations of an old Arab alcazaba (fortress) and has a rich history dating back to the Moorish period. The castle played an important role during the Reconquista, the reconquest of Spain by the Christian kingdoms. In February 1482, the castle was conquered by the troops of the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand and Isabella. After the conquest, the castle was fortified to prevent the Moors from reconquering it. The castle is now an important cultural and historical monument in Alhama de Granada. Although it is privately owned and not open to the public, it remains a recognisable and iconic building in the city, with its striking red colour

To reach the parking lot at Llanadas de Sedella requires a vehicle with 4-wheel drive like a Land Rover Defender. There are gates that might be closed so you must check with the park authorities beforehand - not much space to turn the vehicle around on this narrow road. Once there the view is stunning with horses grazing around. But be cautious! The recommended track we took to reach the top are for expert hikers. Some parts are very steep (>35%) with loose stones. If you suffer from vertigo, avoid! You need support by both hands at time. It’s not an official track but rather a path used by sheep, whose poo indicate that you are on the right track. (There is a northern track that serpentines its way up that might be more convenient). But once you are on the white-green path originating from the Fuentes del Robledal it’s ok. You are exposed to strong winds and no shelter from the sun. Bring lot’s of water and calculate 6hrs return hike. Once you have reached the top of la Maroma you will have a fantastic view over Andalucia with the Sierra Nevada at your back and Gibraltar in front.

View from the Mirrador de Alhama into the gorge of the Rio Alhama

Great view over the gorge.

The Pantaneta de Alhama is included in the Andalusian inventory of wetlands. It is the habitat of many birds, some of them threatened, so walking around here allows you to observe one of the richest ecosystems in the province of Granada.
