Lake Viñuela lies in the heart of some of Andalusia most spectacular scenery and in the Axarquia region, which boasts many white-washed Spanish villages dotted about.. Thankfully, as the lake is a reservoir, no motorised craft are allowed. You can enjoy sailing boats and canoes and fishing, with a permit, is allowed. Scattered around the southern end of the lake are picnic areas, each table complimented by a barbecue and all with fantastic views of the lake and mountains behind. The local beaches stretch along the whole of the coast. During the summer the various villages around the lake have their fiestas, where free food and beverages are served at various times throughout the day.
This unspoiled area of Andalusia is untouched by mass tourism and surrounded by National Park, being designated an area of outstanding natural beauty.
