This little village of about 500 inhabitants is located at over nine hundred metres, receiving the popular name of “The Pyrenees of the South”.

The contrast between the rock and the humid vegetation created an spectacular landscape in which the most splendid steep cliffs in the province of Málaga can be found.
Its orography and its distance from the capital converted these lands into great shelters for bandits during the Nineteenth Century.

Here you can visit the Parish Church of “El Santo Cristo de Cabrilla”, the archaeological sites at the gorge of the “Sabar River” and south of the “Tajo Gómer” and the natural itinerary of the route of the cliffs (“La Ruta de los Tajos”).

Furthermore, pictorial remains are in many of the numerous caves and shelters of the place: “Cuevas del Chamizo”, “La Morronquera”, “Pela Horá”, and the shelter of “Cortijo de la Cueva”…

The festive calendar began with “La Candelaria” in February. In spring, continues with “la Romería de San Marcos” (15th May). And, above all, the festivities of the 29th of September in honour of “San Miguel”.

Fried goat (chivo frito), “migas”, “setas de cardillo” together with the traditional “roscos de San Marcos”, complete its varied and succulent gastronomical offer.
