The Montes de Malaga Natural Park belongs, in part, to the Axarquia territory and, in part, to the Montes de Malaga region. It occupies an area of 411.72 Km2 with olives, almond trees, pines, old holm oaks and other vegetable species. Among its vast fauna the “cabra malagueña” (a kind of goat) is one of its most important autochthonous breed.
We can find a natural rich area as well as a heritage whose origin goes back to prehistory. Examples of archaeological interest are the Cueva de los Chivos and La Pulsera, both in the Colmenar area. The track of the Arabic culture and the medieval period is present at the town planning and monuments in the region; some of them considered as historic and artistic ones (like the Algibe de Comares).
Another relevant aspect of the culture in the region is folklore. The “Verdiales” deep rooted popular folk songs from Malaga are the best example.
