Cutar is halfway between Benamargosa and El Borge, is a prime example of La Axarquia landscape, beginning with the village itself. It is spread along the side of a hill, the Cerro de Cutar in this case, that is, in turn, surrounded by a succession of hills of varying heights covered by vineyards and olive trees. If you arrive at the village on the road from El Borge, you will make out in the background the Cerro de Comares hill, one of the most unforgettable images of La Axarquia.

Two short rivers, the La Cueva and its tributary the River Cutar, each shapes in its own valley an area of great scenic beauty, not only for the fertile gardens and orchards that line their banks but for certain topographic features that are worth a short detour to see, such as the Salto del Negro (El Negro waterfall).

Monuments :

The Nuestra Senora de la Encarnacion church, Arabic fountain, and the archaeological remains at Pena del Hierro.

How to Get There :

If you are coming from the Costa del Sol take the Mediterranean Expressway A-7 (N-340) and turn onto A-335 in the direction of Velez Malaga. It is not necessary to go into Velez, about three kilometres past that place (at Trapiche) you can turn onto the MA-145, which connects with two other roads, the MA-146 and the MA-178. The first will take you to Benamargosa and from that village to Cutar. The latter road (MA-178) will lead to Almachar, El Borge and finally to Cutar. Both routes are practically the same length.
