The best time to visit Benalauría is during the spring (April to May) and autumn (September to October) months when the weather is most pleasant for exploring.During these periods, you'll find comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 18°C to 25°C, which are great for hiking and enjoying the outdoor activities the region offers. The spring brings a burst of wildflowers and greenery to the surrounding hills, while autumn offers a slightly cooler climate and the beautiful colours of changing leaves. Both seasons avoid the intense heat of summer and the cooler, wetter days of winter.For those planning an active holiday, particularly couples or solo travellers interested in walking or cycling, these months are ideal. The trails around Benalauría, such as those leading through the Genal Valley, are much more enjoyable without the peak summer heat. You'll also find the local villages are less crowded, allowing for a more relaxed experience when visiting local bodegas or artisan shops.While summer (June to August) is also popular, especially for those who enjoy very hot weather for relaxing by a pool, it can be quite warm for extensive sightseeing or physical activities.
