시에라 모레나 최고의 러닝 경로

The first stop on the old road to the Sanctuary of the Virgin of the Head is where pilgrims rest and have a light lunch before continuing their journey. Here you'll find several watering troughs so the horses can quench their thirst during the approximately 20-kilometer trek from the city of Andújar. A small chapel has also been built where pilgrims can pray to the Virgin.

Also known as Burgalimar Castle, it is a magnificent example of Andalusian military architecture from the Caliphate period, as it has barely suffered any modifications or damage to its structure.

The Cimbarra Waterfall Viewpoint is located in the Cimbarra Natural Park, near Aldeaquemada, in the province of Jaén. This viewpoint offers a spectacular view of the main waterfall, which is one of the most impressive in the region.

Openings intended to place various means of defense from within the fortress to attack the enemy.

Access door to the interior of the fortress where we will find the ticket office to pay the price of the tickets. From €11 we can choose a package that includes a guided tour inside the castle, a visit to the church of San Mateo and later a visit to the Sanctuary of Cristo del Llano. Definitely worth it!

Views from outside the Castle from where we can see the impressive wall that surrounds it and can be seen from several kilometers away.

Since 1227, the date on which the apparition of the Virgin of the Head to Pastor Juan de Rivas is recorded, the celebration of the pilgrimage is commemorated on the last Sunday of April of each year, although the apparition took place on the night of the 11th. to August 12, 1227 in whose memory a kind of small pilgrimage is also celebrated on that date in the same Sanctuary of the Virgin of the Head.

The hermitage of San Ginés is an important milestone for pilgrim walkers who make the journey from Andújar to the Sanctuary of the Virgen de la Cabeza, along what is known as the old road or bridle path. San Ginés is the place where there is a kind of hill that leaves Andújar behind in the view, to soon resume the views of the Jándula river valley. Walkers usually stop there to rest and regain strength. The hermitage and its surroundings were also rehabilitated a few years ago.
