Grazalema Natural Park 
is located in the north east of the province of Cádiz and in the north west of Málaga, at an altitude ranging from 250 to 1,654 metres above sea level.
The Sierra de Grazalema, believe or not, is the rainiest spot in Spain. Its mountains trap the humidity coming from the Atlantic and give it a lush and very pleasant temperature in the summer as opposed to the surrounding countryside where it can easily reach 37ºC. Its heavy rainfall and limestone terrain have created a landscape rich in slopes, grottoes, caves and winding gorges.
Visit the region to enjoy outdoor pursuits and nature; a special protection zone for birds, the park covers approximately 51,000 hectares, home to one of the largest nesting colonies of tawny vultures in Europe, several species of eagle and other birds such as the goshawk and the Egyptian vulture. One of Europe's largest bat colonies can also be found here.
The Sierra de Grazalema is famous for its marvellous trekking routes which make it an ideal place for nature lovers and all those who enjoy, camping, flora and fauna, bird watching or mountain biking. There are many excursions available and on one route you can find a rare specie of pine tree which existed during the last ice age; a virtual living fossil which only grows at altitudes of over 1,000 metres.
Whilst the topography is very accidental, the views are simply majestic.
