the beehive or "colmena" and its organic honey can be bought today. The village also has a honey museum

surrounding area are superb. Colmenar has a very good selection of tapas bars, restaurants, bakers, butchers,
small supermarkets, chemist, 24 hour medical centre , banks and a weekly fresh fruit and veg market.
It is also well connected by good roads to the motorway junction only kms away making it an ideal base for touring

their own festivals. The Spanish always have something to celebrate!
Colmenar is close to the villages of Rio Gordo, Alfernate and the beautiful hilltop village of Comares.
There is a small local park, huge municipal swimming pool and a great area for country walks.
A small riding stable is located a few miles away, 2 larger ones approx 35 mins and the area is also idea for
birdwatching, walking and bike riding.
The Montes de Malaga national park has lovely cool walks in the pine forests and the Torcal National Park with its
