Iznajar &
the surrounding area
Iznajar is located in the green and lush Andalucian mountains, 50 minutes north of Malaga Airport, or east of Granada Airport.
It
sits high on a peninsula, and therefore, has lake views from most aspects.
Iznajar Lake offers its own
beach, water sports and fishing. It stretches for 32 kilometers, with patchwork colored
banks, which serve to enhance its beauty.
Iznajar's narrow streets meander up to the castle at its highest point. Seek out its plaques, plotting Iznajar's long and rich history.
The whole area is located on the edge of " Sierra Subbetica" National Park, a very beautiful and popular part of Andalucia. The park is favored by bird-watchers, ramblers, and nature lovers!
(The park has its own site which can visited here - although it is in Spanish!)
