A trout river has its source in its surroundings and its course crosses the valley flooding it with the freshness of its limpid water and leafy riverside vegetation.
Arab people, during their eight centuries stay, marked the identity signs of this village; they are reflected on its culture, on the architecture of its houses, the whiteness of the whitewashed fronts, the red colour of the tiles, the use of water … etc.
Benamahoma village is located in the reserve area of the Sierra de Grazalema Nature Reserve; it is one of the most attractive corners in the Pueblos Blancos route (white towns). It is on the slope of a small valley surrounded by some impressive escarpments among evergreen oak woods and vegetable gardens.
The present road that leads us to Benamahoma was made in the 70s; this fact has kept this area isolated as the time has been passing; at the same time, this has let it keep the charm and magic of nature in all its almost intact splendour until nowadays; this very nature that has taken root in the life of a small group of peasants and stockbreeders who have worked their land and exploited their pastures in total harmony with it.
Nowadays, this town has gained some development favoured by a rural tourism that is responsible and respectful with the environment; at the same time, it offers the visitors some comforts like shops, bars and restaurants, as well as a chemist’s, a bank and a modern public swimming pool.
