Sierra de Alor

The Sierra de Alor is the region’s green lung and a living monument to Mediterranean nature. Rising above the Extremaduran plain, this landscape offers one of the most breathtaking views of the border, allowing you to see the winding Guadiana River and the lands of Portugal on the horizon. It is renowned for the richness of its flora, where centuries-old olive groves and pastures blend with a landscape that, in spring, bursts into a riot of color. It is the perfect refuge for hikers seeking a connection with the land, a space where the fresh air and silence are interrupted only by the flight of the birds of prey that guard its peaks.

What makes the Sierra de Alor unique is its astonishing biological diversity; it is world-renowned for being home to rare species of wild orchids and the legendary Rose of Alexandria
