The Altiplano Region of Baza
The Altiplano region of Baza is one of the many unspoiled gems of Andalucia. Baza is situated in the north of the Granada Province, it is the capital of the overall area of the same name. Other smaller villages in the Baza area are: Benamaurel, Caniles, Cortes de Baza, Cuevas del Campo, Cúllar, Freila, and Zújar.
Baza town sits at an altitude of 844 metres above sea level and has a population of around 21,600; accounting for almost 50% of the overall 45,000 population of the entire region of Baza.
One of the most appreciated aspects of this historical main town of Baza is the towering mountain called Jabalcon, at just 12 kilometres away, which dominates the landscape like a protective watchtower. This natural backdrop of the surrounding mountains of the Sierra de Baza and the Sierra de Castril is simply breathtaking. When taking it all in, it is hard to believe that you are a mere 107 kilometres from Granada City and not more than an hour’s drive from the busy coast.
There are train and bus services to the local area and it is best to check routes and timetables beforehand. Guadix is the nearest train station, at 48 kilometres away. There are various bus companies, offering many travel options to Baza from many main towns. In particular, there are regular bus services between Granada and Baza. Bus and coach travel in Andalusia is a comfortable and affordable way to see beautiful countryside.
The contrasting landscapes are emblematic of this area: from the Sierras (Mountain areas) officially declared Natural Parks in 1989, to the arid ‘Bad lands’ of the plateau that forms the Altiplano and then across the vast fertile valley in all its verdant glory. With this simple natural environment comes a peculiarly interesting heritage of cave houses, inhabited since time immemorial and now becoming a much sought after retreat for the rural tourist and home to many expats.
The people of Baza, still live by and celebrate many ancient customs and traditions mainly linked to religion, farming and agriculture.
