Grazalema

Few places in Spain get more rain than Grazalema: Atlantic winds strike the peaks of its sierra and drop more water here than anywhere else in Andalusia. The white village sits at about 800 m below the Peñón Grande, where the Guadalete rises, and in the 17th century it prospered from weaving, known for its shawls. Today walkers come for the mountains.
