The almond and cherry tree fields also bloom in Andalusia along idyllic terrains. Living, visiting or touring Andalusia is a pleasure at any time of the year, but it is no less true that spring here is synonymous with life in the streets, pleasant temperatures and light for many hours.
In short, a series of conditions that favor the enjoyment of the cities and natural spaces that this land provides us.
With the return of good weather also come the phenomena of spring and, as expected in the month of March, the cherry and almond trees begin to bloom leaving pictures of the most bucolic.
We have compiled some photographs of those corners of Andalusia where these trees bloom leaving an incredible white landscape. You don’t need to move from home to delight yourself with these images that only last a couple of weeks:
Sierra Mágina (Jaén)
Sierra Mágina is the perfect place to contemplate the cherry and almond trees in bloom between late March and early April. It is undoubtedly one of the most magical landscapes of the Andalusian spring.
Between Jimena and Torres runs a route that starts at the Fuente del Moro and continues through the pine forest of Cánava and Caracoles. It climbs up the north face of the Aznaitín mountain to descend along the path to the lane, which again leads to Albanchez.
Alfarnate (Málaga)
Every spring, the pinkish-white flowers of the cherry and almond trees cover the fields of the town of Alfarnate (Malaga, Andalusia) with light colors. It is not surprising that this territory has been baptized as the “Valle del Jerte malagueño” and hiking trails have been created to enjoy firsthand the Malaga spring.
Alfarnate has a particular orography, as it is the highest municipality in the province and is completely surrounded by the mountains. The cultivation of cherry trees has been introduced in recent years resulting in one of the most attractive images of the place.
Guaro (Málaga)
The Sierra de las Nieves reserves this town full of almond trees in bloom. So intense is its blossoming that here they dedicate a thematic party to it on the last Sunday of January. An appointment with proposals around nature: a couple of hiking trails, gastronomic tastings and even a photography contest.
Arenas (Málaga)
The Malaga municipality of Arenas is accessed from Velez-Malaga through a winding road. A journey that will lead travelers to this path of almond blossom.
You can see them just before the town of Arenas, in the neighboring village of Daimalos or along the way to the ruins of Bentomiz castle.
