Ruta del Arte Rupestre Andaluz

Andalusia has a very important artistic legacy from Prehistory distributed throughout its territory - in the form of an enormous and complex mosaic - from magnificent Palaeolithic painted groups (Ardales, Pileta, Nerja, Ambrosio, etc.) to the most recent - and numerous - groups of Schematic painting (nuclei of Sierra Morena, the Subbetic, the North of Almeria, etc.). Between them, chronologically speaking, are the Levantine Art groups of the easternmost area of the provinces of Almería and Jaén, the most southerly of this peculiar style of peninsular prehistory. Indispensable proposals: The enclaves declared World Heritage by UNESCO, some of which require a hiking approach: Tabla de Pochico, Abrigo del Engarbo and Cueva de Los Letreros. Also, the Cueva de Doña Trinidad de Ardales, for its extraordinary Palaeolithic cave paintings. How to get there: In 6 days, the route covers inland Andalusia (from west to east), from the town of Trigueros, in Huelva, to the region of Los Vélez, in Almería. It also passes through Benalup (Cádiz), Ardales (Málaga), Zuheros (Granada), Jimena, Aldeaquemada, Santiago-Pontones and Vélez Blanco (all in the province of Almería).
