The Camino in Andalusia is called Camino Mozarabe and honors the Christians who lived in the Muslim area of Al-Andalus (called Mozarabs) and were aware of the discovery of the remains of the apostle Santiago in Compostela. They risked their lives to travel to Santiago, the immense distance from the south to the remains of the apostle in the north of Spain.

Halfway between Córdoba, Granada and Jaén, Baena watches over the olive groves of the countryside from a hill. Its urban structure is clearly differentiated into two halves divided by the N-432 that crosses it. One of these halves, the oldest, preserves the sinuous Arab layout with narrow houses and steep streets.

Its name actually comes from the Latin "specula", which meant 'watchtower'. Its castle, residence of the Dukes of Osuna, is undoubtedly a singular watchtower in the middle of the Cordovan countryside with its endless cereal fields.

The surface is usually in very good condition, but there is no lighting. If you arrive in the sun, you don't need much, but if you arrive in the afternoon or at night, I recommend that you have a flashlight handy.

Great trail between Cordoba and Santa Cruz.

Route through the Cordovan countryside, between crops and farms. Not recommended with high temperatures because there are no shadows.

The town of Baena lives on olives. Its entire economy is largely based on the exploitation of the olive tree and its juicy elixir. There is a very interesting olive museum to visit. The "Museo del olivar y el Aceite" opened in 2003. It is installed in an old mill. On two floors, we discuss the history and different uses of the olive, and even its stone which serves as energy fuel. Note that in November, the museum organizes olive and oil days with exhibitions, a series of conferences, competitions and gastronomic tours.
