Source of the Genal River

Highlight • River

Place to replenish water and strength during the route. Cool in summer and pleasant in winter with a sunny day. You can have a good toast and a coffee in the bar located next to the birth.

Júzcar, known as the Blue Village, is a picturesque village in the province of Málaga, famous for its blue-painted houses. This colour change was made in 2011 for the world premiere of the film "The Smurfs". Although it was initially a temporary campaign, the inhabitants decided to keep the blue colour due to the increase in tourism.
