Cazorla, in the province of Jaén, is the biggest town in the Alto Guadalquivir region. Located near the Sierras de Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas Nature Park, which was named part of the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 1983, Cazorla is the perfect place to spend a few days of relaxation, leisure time and adventure. Enjoy a holiday in Cazorla and start your journey by making your way through olive trees to reach the beautiful historic centre of the town. The landscape is dominated by the majesty and ancient beauty of the Castillo de la Yedra, built on the remains of a Moorish castle, the Fortaleza de las Cinco Esquinas, a fort with five corners built on the top of the Cerro de Salvatierra hill, and the ruins of the Iglesia de Santa María, a church dating back to the 16th century.
