CASARES
Casares is a picture postcard village with a
population of just three thousand and the view from the approach is
definitely worth a photo.
To say that Casares is beautiful is an understatement.
Most of the white villages are beautiful but there is something very
special about the sight of Casares that causes the visitor to park the
car and simply stare or take a photo. It is hard to believe that this
enchanting, typical village is only nine miles from the hustle and
bustle of the coast and somehow succeeded in avoiding the coach tour
circuit.
It is best to approach the village for the first time
when driving from the coast road (N340/A7) by turning inland at Km. 147
(between Estepona and Sabinillas) near Torre de la Sal and head inland
for 15 km. The scenery is picturesque, so take your time. Suddenly you
turn a bend in the road, and are treated to a spectacular view of the
village with its medieval fortress.
