It occupies a wonderful valley in the southern foothills of Sierra Morena, next to the Natural Park of Despeñacolos. Here they grow a great variety of aromatic plants and beautiful trees of different species, such as pine trees, oak trees, alcornoques, chestnuts, willows, abounding the plateau from which this place takes the name. There is also a small river of crystalline waters on a stony bed called "La Campana."

In the geological aspect, there are iron pyrite, which is why the waters of one of its many springs are ferruginous. This area where La Aliseda is located, was in its time part of a large mining center where the gallena filons abound with a lot of silver.

The recreational area of the Jabali is distinguished by the abundance of oak trees surrounded by pine trees, very characteristic of the Sierras de Andújar Natural Park, to which it belongs. It is perfectly equipped to celebrate a family picnic, with tables, banks, barbecues, containers, and even a fountain. His name is given by the remarkable stone sculpture of the lone boar who presides over the space, the work of local artist Luis Aldehuela. The enclave links with the path that connects El Jabali with the Encinarejo.

There are two ways to access the Bear Dehesa:

• From the village of Onsares, you have to leave on the road to Villarrodrigo and, within 3 km, we take the forest track that leaves on our right. We follow her without taking any of the detours that go back to Onsares to the right. At 6, 5 km from the time we took this lead, we got to the recreational area.

• From the A-310 road between Siles and La Puerta de Segura, at point 17, we take a forest track passing through the village of La Pendolera. After 14.8 km, without being separated by any detour, we reached the Dehesa del Oso. The initial section of this track passes through the area where the works of the Siles dam are currently being carried out.

If we access from Siles, it is appropriate to stop for a while in the small village of La Cañada the Lord.

The whole area is covered by an impressive black pine pineapple with oaks, complaints and dense Mediterranean bush.

From the Dehesa del Oso you can go by forest track to the village of El Bellotar, 5 km, already located in the province of Albacete. To do this, we have to follow the Cambrón route and, in which we will see at the end of 0.7 km (collado de Las Lagunillas), follow the front rather than turn right towards El Cambrón. From El Bellotar you can get off by asphalt road to the charming village of Villaverde del Guadalimar and close a circuit back to Siles.

Here's what it takes to spend a quiet day in the middle of nature. You have a large parking area, meringeros with chairs and wooden tables, a fountain, a kiosk-bar (open only in summer) and a charming piscina-dam very busy in the months of hottest.

The presence of water attached to the lush and closed forest around this area allows, when there is little human activity, the mammals of the saw to move freely around. The bouquet, boar or even muflon have been seen a few meters from the recreation area.

But the minuscule life is the queen of the area: invertebrates like the dragonfly, and a very delicate crustacean like the native river crab are raised in the remnants of the stream of Linarejos. Your visit must, by obligation, be respectful of the inhabitants of the mountain, avoiding unnecessary noises and removing any waste from the place.

We suggest:

• Take a walk to the canyon that the Guadalquivir River has tasted in the Cerrada del Utrero. It's about following the track that comes out next to the kiosk of the recreational area and turning left to go next to the stream. Do it with caution because in the end you arrive at the spectacular jump of Linarejos, where you don't have to look too much.

In Cazorla take the Sierra road (A-319) until the crossing known as the Empalme del Valle. Turn right on the JF-7092 road and after passing the bridge over the Guadalquivir River (4 km from the Empalme) follow the left track (JF-7091). 2 km from this bridge we turn left by a track that arrives, after a kilometre to the recreational area.

Fuenmayor in a camping area and a road, located in the middle of a large mass of trees, with plenty of water, as there is a spring there. The recreation area extends along the Fresnos de Fuenmayor stream, with a source of water jumps and a pond, as well as stationery, banks and picnic tables. The Fuenmayor is surrounded by long chopos between which you can see and hear some birds of forest and riverside like the listed reyezuelo, the common agateador or the cascade lavender.

Mount Burguillos is one of the most significant elevations of the border area between Sierra Morena and the countryside.

The recreational area of Burguillos is equipped with tables, banks and barbecues, as well as sources, an artificial lagoon, parking area, a bar-restaurant and a Nature Hall.

The area is frequented by people who want to share a field meal with their friends or family, take a walk in the middle of nature or simply contemplate the rich biodiversity that Burguillos has.

The area of the Dehesa de Burguillos, also known as the Villa, is home to a Mediterranean forest of oak trees, alcornoques and complaints, a bucolic livestock area and a beautiful closed area through which the Rumblar River passes after leaving the dam. In addition, the land is splattered with spectacular rounded blocks of granite called "bowling" and of cavalry stones, as well as carrocal features of this area of Sierra Morena.

From the recreational area there are numerous hiking routes, all signposted and of medium-low difficulty, being able to intertwine with each other, highlighting one that goes into the mountain under adhesado to the Rumblar River and another that runs through the so-called Cerro de las Trinches, where trenches used in the Civil War are located.
