Sierra Blanquilla, Mountain summit in Andalusia, Spain

Sierra Blanquilla rises to an elevation of 1,428 meters above sea level in the Malaga province, featuring steep limestone slopes and Mediterranean vegetation.

The mountain formation occurred during the Alpine orogeny period when the African and Eurasian tectonic plates collided, creating the Betic Cordillera system.

Local shepherds have maintained traditional grazing practices on Sierra Blanquilla's slopes for generations, contributing to the maintenance of native grasslands.

The mountain offers multiple hiking trails that start from the nearby town of Ronda, with the main ascent route taking approximately 4 hours to reach the summit.

From the peak, hikers can observe both the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean on clear days, spanning a visual range of over 100 kilometers.
