GUADIX AND THE GRANADA PLATEAU

To the northeast of Granada lies the region of Guadix and Marquesado de Zenete. It is a world of great contrast where we encounter stepped landscapes with a lunar aspect and fertile plains mingling with snow capped mountains.
There are many communities that constitute this area, with a large rich culture providing a home for an important strong colony of influential Arabic grandeur.

The heavy clay composition of the land has created the formation of  caves, that has been the shelter and home for man for many centuries. Many of these remain today as rural accommodation, the inhabitants called troglodytes or cave dwellers.

Further to the northeast of the province we encounter the region of El  Altiplano Granadino. A high plateau formed from the draining of a huge lake that filled the land for millions of years. We are able to encounter here numerous remains and relics of a prehistoric culture.
In this region we have La Sierra de Baza, that is surface lined with numerous paths that give us the opportunity to see and travel over this beautiful landscape.
