The 5 stars is for the town as a whole, really loved it. It was by coincidence that we saw it from the road and decided to visit. Really worth it. Will definitely go back.

This is a small area up to the main village, we if there was we never found it, not much to see hear but the the views are spectacular, well worth it just for that!

A place to explore while in Spain. Very special little treasure in the mountains.

Castillo de Comares it selves deserve 5 stars, no doubt. It is a lovely little fortress-whire-city with its own charm. Pay attention to the details, down to even the pavement. Up keep is also above other white cities and I have been there three times and never experienced a crowd. This might be because of the twisted and slow road to get there that also made me remove the fifth star. The 30'some kilometers from Malaga takes an hour to drive and back seat passengers should not be motion sickness prone (for the driver it is fun though 😀)

Amazing views, beautiful village and weather to die for.

Beautiful little white mountain village. A couole od small bars and a restaurant in the main square.. great to sit and peoplewatch. Very steep streets so not reccomended for hard of walking or elderly.. worth the climb though for views.

Worth a look, a section of medieval castle with a lovely view

Comares Castle are the remains of the ancient fortress of probable Arab origin in the Axarquía region. It is located in the highest part of the village next to the municipal cemetery and with fantastic views of the Vélez river valley, trails of the "Raisin Route", and the Mediterranean Coast. Few traces remain of the original fortress but parts of the great wall that surrounded the castle of have been reconstructed.

Beautiful views and place. Amazing views for Spanish village

Great place for the views well worth the drive. There is also history here back to the time of the Romans I believe. Been here twice now

Amazing views

Muy bonito, pero una pena que el Ayuntamiento no se haya preocupado por limpiar el pueblo, la muralla, y las calles del polvo del Sáhara.

Precioso pueblo andaluz, en la cima de una montaña. Para acceder al castillo andando evidentemente, hay diferentes rutas siguiendo una huella de cerámica, por las empedradas calles peatonales, rodeadas de flores y arcos árabes, no es el castillo lo que te enamora sino las vistas, impresionantes. Para los más atrevidos tb hay vía Ferrata. No te vayas sin probar el pan.. buenísimo. Volveré.

El Castillo de Comares nos presenta los restos de la antigua fortaleza de origen árabe que dominaba la comarca axarqueña. Sus orígenes pueden ser de época anterior, aunque los historiadores no llegan a concretar la fecha. En la actualidad conserva dos de los torreones y parte de la muralla defensiva. Está situado en la parte más alta del pueblo junto al cementerio municipal y desde aquí tenemos unas vistas del valle del río Vélez y de la Costa mediterránea. Pocos restos quedan, sin embargo de esta fortaleza, pero el vestigio más sobresaliente lo forma “la Tahona”, restos de la gran muralla que rodeaba el primitivo castillo de Comares.

Bonito pueblo de Málaga ubicado en la cima de una montaña. Hay que acceder al castillo caminando, existen diferentes rutas.

Er is weinig overgebleven van het oude fort, maar de restanten zijn keurig onderhouden en er staan (Spaanstalige) informatieborden.
