Mairena is considered the "Balcón de La Alpujarra", because from the viewpoint of its hermitage you can enjoy privileged views over the set of the valley of Ugíjar, the Cerrajón de Murtas and the Almeria Sierra de Gador. It is also one of the whitest and best-kept villages in the surrounding area, in whose urban complex the silhouette of its church stands out.

Royal ditch that irrigates the balanced crops of Júbar and Mairena. This ditch is inherited from Al-Andalus and follows the operation of the irrigation and care ditch of Sierra Nevada, an extensive system of regulation of the hydrological cycle and that allows the existence of corridors of vegetation that increase the diversity of the Sierra.

This is the furthest point of the circular route of the Acequia Real de Mairena, from where the return is undertaken by a different path than the one that came. The Castaño de Laroles path also converges at this point, which does continue to climb a little further along the ditch.

Although its name derives from the Latin word for laurel, it is the chestnut trees that enjoy the greatest prominence, as in other towns in the area. Here it is said that the chestnut was used for a long time as a currency. The town is distributed in the form of a fan around its three squares.

As its name indicates, you can find this small lagoon dry, but it is not so all year round. If you come in the thaw season you can see it with water. Many cattle also graze in the area.
