Costa De La Luz The wild beauty and pearl of Andalusia
 “Costa de la Luz” in Andalusia bears the fame of being the
most beautiful and diverse coastal region rightfully.
Old native villages, bearing testimony of 1000 years
of changing history, lay scattered in a
wilderness. Wild cork-oaks, fields of sun-flowers and
grazing bulls, belong to the character of this singular
landscape. A contrast is formed by charming coastal villages
and empty sandy beaches inviting to stay. Not to forget Jerez, cradle of
sherry and flamenco. Submit to the natural charme and the heartfelt hospitality
of this region.
This route mostly leads on country roads or tracks,
mostly flat, partly hilly with 2 short ascents to the White Villages.
Road traffic has to be expected when entering or exiting the towns.
Often it is possible to elongate the trips, if desired.
