Articles 20VN | Pinos Del Valle and Other Andalucia Holiday ...

Pinos del Valle is an ancient village that has existed since the tenth century. You can find the village on the slopes that surround the Lecrin Valley and gives magnificent views across the mountains from your holiday villas Andalucia, also you will be able to see across the Beznar Reservoir as well as see two imposing churches. When you arrive at your Andalucia holiday rentals in Pinos del Valle you will notice that the village is segregated into two parts with the main shops and supermarket are in one part along with a number of excellent restaurants and the other is more residential housing. The cuisine served here is for the most part local and is accompanied by the famous Andalucia's beer and wine.

If you would like to do a little walking while you are on holiday the Pinos del Valle has a lot on offer. If this is your first trip to the area it is suggested that you use a local guide to make sure that you don't get lost or miss out on any historical land marks. If you do prefer to strike out on your own at least get a guide-book of the local area and holiday villas Andalucia that outlines all the trails as well as the trail markings. For example there are red and white stripes painted on post, walls and even trees marking public footpaths.

The fiesta season in the valley is a good reason for all the local town folk to gather together and have a big party. The festivals in the valley are celebrated with great exuberance which includes a week of food, music, dancing and a large fireworks display. The best time to visit Pinos del Valle for a fiesta is in the middle of August as this is the biggest celebration and the other one falls in May. If it is peace and quiet that you are after then don't come during this time of year.

For a day out from Pinos del Valle take the short drive over to the ancient village of Salernas. Here they still have the old winding narrow cobbled stone streets that only donkeys pulling carts are able to use. These animals are used to haul goods and work in the fields; this is due to the rough terrain and isolation of the village. If you are able to visit the village in the evening stop at one of the local bars where you can see the local folk having a drink while discussing the day's activities; this is when you will learn about typical rural life in Spain. If you would like to know a little history about the village ask one of the town folk and he will probably point you in the direction of the 16th century church and bell tower which makes for an interesting stop. You will also find some interesting trails that start in the village leading up into the hills that surround the village. Before you leave the village take the time to visit one of the street markets where you will find fresh fruit, vegetables and crafts on most days of the week of your Andalucia holdiay rentals.
