Casares is a typical Andalusian village in the mountains where the narrow, winding streets make their way through whitewashed houses. Viewing it from afar will leave you breathless, with the bright white of its buildings contrasting with the wild nature surrounding it. Blas Infante, considered the father of the Andalusian region, was born in this beautiful town in Málaga, and his legacy can be seen in the streets of Casares.

Choose from our cheap trips to Casares and get to know this town where you’ll think time stands still. Despite preserving the charm of the villas of yesteryear, the municipality has managed to adapt to the new times and find a balance between tradition and modernity. Check it out by visiting the town centre, officially declared a Historical Site in 1978. The route starts at the castle of Casares, an ancient Muslim fortress located at the highest point of the town. The Blas Infante cultural centre, also located here, is home to a permanent exhibition on the region's history.

If you keep strolling through the historic centre, you'll come across the fountain of Carlos III, an 18th century construction that was designed to channel water from a nearby spring, and the curious cemetery of Casares, designed to adapt to the town's hilly terrain. Those who are looking to relax in the middle of the countryside are sure to love our package deals to Casares: on the outskirts of the town you’ll find the Hedionda baths, natural pools whose waters have healing properties.

On your trip to Casares, we recommend you travel by private car to enjoy total freedom of movement. If you don't have a car and are travelling from further afield, your best option is to land at Málaga airport, just over 62 miles away, and rent a car to enjoy the Sierra de Ronda in all its splendour.
