From traditional porra antequerana to modern tapas, Andalusian cuisine abounds here. Enjoy in a shady square or overlooking the Alcazaba.
Antequera is inland, but by car you can be on the beaches of Málaga or the Costa del Sol in an hour. Combine culture with a day at the sea.
El Torcal is a true hiking paradise with bizarre limestone formations. Hike to viewpoints, along cave paths and past hidden flora. Also around the Peña de los Enamorados are routes full of legends.

Spring and fall offer mild hiking weather. Summer can be hot, but thanks to the altitude, it is often bearable. In winter, it is cool but clear - perfect for city trips.
Fly to Málaga and drive to Antequera in about 50 minutes. Also easily accessible by train (towards Seville or Granada). Prefer to go by bus? There are regular connections from Málaga.
On foot you will discover the best of this city. From the old Alcazaba to baroque churches, through the Arco de los Gigantes and viewpoints over the valley. Everything is close by - except the centuries.
Stay in a Parador with pool, a rustic boutique hotel or an apartment in the historic center. There is something for every style and budget.
Visit the UNESCO dolmens, climb to the Alcazaba, hike through El Torcal or relax in the square with a tapa. Day trips to Caminito del Rey, Málaga or Córdoba are also easily made.
Summers are hot, with dry air. Because of its location at 575 meters, it often feels more pleasant than on the coast. Winters are mild, and with 300 sunny days a year, you can almost always get outside here.
