It is almost pointless to describe the characteristics of the landscape because once you get to the village you will command a view of an expanse of terrain from the mountains to the sea, where not only the geographic features are visible but also the crops and vegetation of an area that is considerably larger than that of the municipality, which is known with good cause as the “Balcony of La Axarquia”.

Comares is in the La Axarquia region, bordering the Malaga Mountains, 28 kilometres from the provincial capital and 24 from Velez Malaga. The village is 700 metres above sea level. Average rainfall in the area is 580 litres per square metre.

Monuments :

The Comares castle, La Encarnacion church, and the Mazmullar cistern.

How to Get There :

One route to Comares starts at the city of Malaga. Take the old Colmenar road, A-6103, to El Puerto del Leon (960 metres). Immediately afterwards you must take the MA-166, which later becomes the MA-165, to Comares. The route passes through superb landscape.

The other route starts at the Mediterranean Expressway. Take the A-335 towards Velez and Alhama de Granada. At Trapiche turn onto the MA-145 and once you are past Benamargosa continue by way of the MA-169 and later the MA-169, which leads straight to Comares.
