On top of this, the ruins of the castle, dominators and solitarians, are required to refer to the intensity of its first historical avatars, but also to the urban configuration of the municipality. Located at the highest point in the environment, it was a privileged place of surveillance for centuries. From that castle, dialectic synthesis of the Muslim and the Christian after being conquered by Fernando III, there remain evotions to the solidity of its already melted walls, to its snail staircase with false door, canes, bookstore and even a winery to keep the most generous caldos manchegos.

The ruins of this castle were declared in 1985 Good of Cultural Interest.

A ceramic panel, made by Palenciano in 1983, of a certain kitsch formalism, is shown in the square of the village to the popular taste, where the patron, the Virgin of Albanchez with the child Jesus, crowned by angels, is represented as well as a panoramic view of the parish church.

It is a small set of traditional houses that are whitened and covered in two waters by Arab tiles, with small verticalized holes to alleviate the rigors of winter, adapted to the simple habits of its inhabitants, dedicated to hunting, pastures and agriculture; and, in more peripheral positions, houses with a floor structure, with a maximum of four heights and roofed to four waters. The buildings are stacked and morphologically split like the chips of a game of domino, almost lost in an open landscape of wide horizons, differentiating ravines and green spaces, only on the next contour to the municipality.

Located at a high height, embedded in a rock, around a rock, at the entrance to the Sierra de Segura, Chiclana is spread through the streets of the mountains, capricious corners and improvised squares, with the smell of the carnations and geraniums of its balconies and windows. It is accessed through a surprising tunnel that introduces us directly into the aura of its medieval mystery. This beautiful town, despite the historical avatars so negative to its heritage - such as the destructive retaliation of the Napoleonic troops, the fratricidal raging of the carlists, or the virulence of the hurricane that destroyed the church tower - retains the original Hispanic-Muslim structure of its urbanism, the medieval typology of its homes, and an unexpected architectural surprise, the buildings excavated in the stone, trogloditic wisdom that makes it possible to have houses with a uniform temperature throughout the year.

Like the other municipalities of the region, it is located between the mountain and the Guadalquivir valley. Its fundamental economy is the olive tree, although it has an incipient tourist development

The waterfall is located next to the Falcones (1448 m), mountain always visible from any street of Cazorla, and a natural stone wall "Los Castellones" (1,820 m), elevation as a fortress from where it is named. To appreciate the water leaps it will be necessary to climb up a narrow path that runs next to the slope of the stream where you will be accompanied by the cornicabra (Pistacia terebinthus), a very abundant species on this path. By moving along the path you will appreciate the impressive fall of water as soon as the limestone walls serve as slides.

We suggest:

• Next to the bridge from where the waterfall is seen, a right-hand road leads us to the control of Riogazas. It is a pleasant walk in which you will find a fountain called "The River" and another beautiful waterfall, that of the Magdalena. From here goes down a road to Cazorla.

In the Iruela you have to reach the square of the City Hall from where the road ascends towards the hotel Riogazas. 5 km from the Iruela and after two lookouts with meringeros there is a bridge. To the left we can see the Cascade of the Escaleruela.

Information and Observations

• We will have to leave the vehicle at the entrance of the lane because there is a barrier to avoid the passage of vehicles.
• The property through which the lane passes is private so it is not allowed to enter the lane with vehicle.
