Sierra de Segura · Jaén
La Veguilla lies deep in the Sierra de Segura, in a little-known corner of Spain’s largest protected area: the Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas Natural Park. Forests, olive groves, gorges and crystal-clear waters to explore on foot, by bike or by car.
We tailor your stay: tell us what you feel like doing and we will recommend the best routes, visits and restaurants.
A historic village perched on a rock, with its castle, a viewpoint over the Tranco reservoir and the Cosmolarium for stargazing.
One of the most beautiful villages in Andalusia, crowned by its castle and with endless views over the mountains.
Just a few minutes away, with local services and the Morciguillinas mountain inn, where you can try the local dishes.
One of the most beautiful walks in Andalusia: wooden walkways through the Cerrada de Elías gorge, waterfalls and turquoise pools in the heart of the Natural Park.
This is where the Guadalquivir and Segura rivers are born. Riverside trails, bridges among the pines and swims in clean mountain water.
White hamlets tucked between gorges and mountain roads with a view at every bend. The most authentic Sierra de Segura.
The great lake of the mountains, surrounded by pine forests and viewpoints. Kayaking, summer swims and picture-postcard sunsets from the reservoir road.
Golden poplars reflected in lagoons and rivers. In autumn the mountains change colour and it is the best time of year for walking.
When it snows, the peaks become a landscape to explore on snowshoes. And when you get back, a roaring fire in your cottage.
Every autumn, from mid-September to mid-October, the bellowing of rutting stags echoes across the Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas Natural Park. It is one of Spain’s great natural spectacles, the very one Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente filmed in these mountains.
