Zuheros

A white village and castle on a cliff top in the Subbética mountains, with a nearby bat cave containing Neolithic remains.

Zuheros lies within the Subbética Natural Park. Its white houses cling to a limestone cliff, and the ruins of an Islamic-era castle stand on top. It has been named one of Spain's most beautiful villages. About 4 km outside the village is the Cueva de los Murciélagos (Bat Cave), with stalactites and Neolithic remains; guided visits must be booked in advance. Nearby trails also lead to the Bóvedas Gorge. Local specialities include goat's cheese and olive oil. The village is about 75 km from Córdoba and requires a car.
