The setting of Mijas is
spectacular. Just a few years ago it was a farming village, but
today it is one of Spain's richest towns, with nearly 75,000
residents. It is one of the beautiful 'Pueblos Blancos' or
'White Towns', situated at the coastal mountain range known as Cordón Montañoso del
Litoral. The two highest points here are the Pico de Mendoza
(1103 meters) and the Pico Mijas (1150 meters) from where there
are breathtaking views over the Costa del Sol. Also in
this mountain chain are the Pico Castillejo (955 m), Cerro del
Moro (973 m), Pico Calamorro (772 m) and Pico Abalcuza (606 m). |
