Archidona is located approximately at a height of 660 metres above the sea level and it features a Mediterranean continental climate.

The changing of seasons results in amazing natural modifications in the landscapes of Archidona. There are so many things that you cannot miss, such as Hoz del Arroyo Marín (narrow area in a valley), which has a unique and indigenous forest filled with Aleppo pines in the province. You can also admire Lagunas de Archidona -wetlands of endorheic origin surrounded by an almost unspoilt Mediterranean forest-, which were declared Natural Reserve in Andalusia. It is also remarkable the sunset views from the top of the mountain, where the ancient Arab mosque -now Hermitage of our patron saint Virgen de Gracia- is located, from where we can also observe Peña de los Enamorados (Lover’s Rock). Especially during the spring and autumn seasons, the visitor will enjoy and appreciate places like these which are unique at a regional level, or even unique to Andalusia.
