The drive from Malaga to Los Corrales takes just over an hour, and you pass through the Guadalhorce Reservoirs, which can be summed up in just one word: “stunning”.
They are so good that residents of Corrales Country Park often go there for a day out. There are several good restaurants overlooking the lake.
Once you pass the lakes, you come to the small town of Campillos, which is only a few kilometres from Los Corrales.
As you travel from Campillos to Los Corrales, you can see with your own eyes why Spain is a major producer of green energy in Europe.
Once you arrive in Los Corrales, two words will sum up how you feel: “so Spanish”.
Being very Spanish does not mean it lacks everything you could possibly need. Here are some examples of what you will find in the village.
Supermarkets – Health centre – Banks – Tapas bars – Restaurants – Municipal pool – Sports facilities
Starting in May, the local ferias draw people and their horses. The local population totals 4000, with quite a few entire families in the village. Traditions run deep and of course residents in Corrales Country Park are always welsome to join in.
