Montejaque
A white village in the heart of the Sierra
Clinging to the slopes of the Sierra de Grazalema, Montejaque is an Andalusian white village best discovered at a leisurely pace. Steep narrow streets, whitewashed houses, small squares and mountain scenery create a setting that has retained its authentic character. Here, nature is never far away: it begins almost on the doorstep.
