This village, situated in the middle of the mountains, belongs to the Sierra de Aracena y los Picos de Aroche Natural Park, one of the most important protected spaces of the Community, which occupies the whole of the north of the province with its meadows and small rises in the ground, covered predominantly in holm oak woods, cork oaks, chestnut trees and scrub through which numerous streams flow forming an extraordinarily beautiful and attractive landscape. Part of the Las Peñas de Aroche and Sierra Pelada y Ribera del Aserrador Natural Beauty Spots also belong to this municipal area.

The village, a lovely group of buildings, possesses all the characteristics of the local popular architecture and the Castle and its walled enclosure along with the Divine Saviour Church (both declared Property of Cultural Interest) stand out.
