Dejlig hvid bjergby 400 m. o. h. Søde og hjælpsomme lokale beboere. Efter siestaen liv og mennesker rundt i byen. Traditionel spansk byggestil, hvor husene er bygget ind i og op ad hinanden. Små snoede gader med hvidkalkede huse. Apotek, læge, minimarked, cafe, bar, isbar, bager, posthus og reiki-healer findes alle i byen. Smukke og letfremkommelige bjergveje, i god stand, til og fra byen. fantstisk smukke bjergscenerier, betagende solop-og nedgange, smuk udsigt over middelhavet og fåreenes klokker der ringer, når fårehyrderne når nær byen. Gode vandre- og gåture muligheder lokalt. Unikke seværdigheder med hensyn til natur/bjerge og flere internationalt berømmede udflugtsmål som eks. La Alhambra, hulerne i Nerja og Katedralen i Cordoba. Alle inden for en dagsrejse.

Gualchos

The tiny village of Gualchos is neatly nestled between the sea and Sierra Nevada Mountain Range, in the region known as the Costa Tropical, midway between Almeria and Malaga, in the southern Alpujarras.

The whole region is enchanting, naturally diverse, where you can sunbath on your terrace, with the
snow capped mountain of Mulhacen behind you. It is one of many small, whitewashed villages, which are scattered throughout the mountains and the region of Las Alpujarras.

History
The name Gualchos derives from the Arabic occupation, and means ‘hidden springs’. From the mountains down to the fountains of the village, runs natural spring water.

About town
The small, but friendly village lies at 1200ft above sea level in a natural enclave, shadowed by the Sierra Nevada mountain ranges and overlooking the Mediterranean to the south.

Amenities in the village are basic, but sufficient, with two bars, a small supermarket, icecream parlour, and a fountain where you can drink the natural spring water that flows down from the mountains. During the summer months the locals organise an evening open air barbecues, where you can enjoy, easy relaxed company and wonderful views to the Mediterranean coastline.

The villagers are mainly Spanish, but in the last few years the area has attracted some foreign
residents, so you won’t feel like the only ‘foreigner’ to hit town!

Gualchos is home to a beautiful Moorish church, which is definitely worth a visit.

Places to visit
Gualchos is conveniently situated for visits westwards to Marbella, Ronda and Gibraltar, eastwards to Almería and the natural park of El Cabo de Gata, and inland to Granada, the provincial capital.

The coastal resort of Motril is just 18 kilometres down along the coast, and is a sizeable market town, with a busy fishing port and a yachting harbour.

Natural surroundings
Set between the highest mountains in Spain and the Mediterranean Sea, the region of Las Alpujarras is one of the most enchanting and beautiful regions in the world. It’s one of Spain’s best kept secrets; a wonderful land of sunshine,
snowy mountains and some of the most splendid scenery imaginable.

The high mountains have their own special beauty; wild in winter, they come alive in early summer with the scents of wild herbs and the spectacle of tiny, brilliantly coloured flowers, many of them unique to the Sierra Nevada.

Altitude and sun have combined to evolve more botanical species in la Alpujarra than in all the rest of Europe.

The lush vegetation, views of snow covered peaks and fantastic hikes between the many small ancient villages, the area the perfect rural destination.

Cuisine

Typical cuisine of the region is based on hearty, rustic cooking; lots of stews, including a delicious lamb stew dish, trout, rabbit and goat dishes.

One delicious speciality of the region is a dish called Plato Alpujarreño, which is literally a plate of eggs, fried peppers, black pudding, sausage, cured ham and fried potatoes; it’s a bit like a Spanish all-day breakfast, delicious!

Other specialities include Asparagus cooked in garlic, rabbit in garlic, and for dessert custard with
liquored biscuit and Alfajores, which is an almond flavoured cake.

Climate
Gualchos has a wonderful climate, with skies so clear that you will marvel at the amount of stars you can see at night, with a micro climate which means the sun shines nearly all year round.

Its altitude means that during winter, nights and often days, can get quite chilly, but wrap up warn
and enjoy the landscape, which is just as stunning in winter, as in the summer.

Costa Tropical opinie

Kysten mellem Almeria og Motrill, som er det umidelbare nær-kystområde er meget forskelligt. Der er mange steder byggeri holdt i traditionel spansk stil. Der er også flere strækninger med højhuse eller hoteller, pakket tæt op ad kysten, uden hensyn til æstetik eller lokale traditioner. Mange smukke strande som kan være fredelige og uspolerede selv i højsessonen. Det kan svare sig at spørge de lokale eller finde dem selv! Området er rigt på fisk og skaldyr. Prøv de lokale seafood-retter eller som topping på paellja!Området bugner af mandel, orange, mandarin, citron og oliventræer. Prøv også gerne en lokal ost, de er ofte en stor smagsoplevelse. Mange gode lokale udflugtsmuligheder lige fra vandreture, besøg i små bjergbyer eller som tilskuer til tyrefægtning.

Gualchos stad opinie

Gualchos ist keine Stadt, sondern eher ein Dorf, das hübsch von der Ferne zu betrachten ist. Einige Häuser im Dorfkern sind sehr angeschlagen. Das Dorf ist sehr eng und am besten zu Fuß zu erfahren.


Costa Tropical opinie

Es gibt herrliche Buchten, die nicht überlaufen sind. Das Wasser ist sanft und angenehm temperiert.
