Map of Jaen Province
Famous for the expanses of olive trees that cover Jaén’s landscape, dotted over rolling hills of orange soil, Jaén is the largest olive growing district in Spain. A landlocked province in the north of Andalucía, Jaén stretches from the vast and wild Sierra Morena in the north down to the border with Granada in the south.
Jaén itself is probably the least visited of Andalucía’s provincial capitals, yet it contains a magnificent cathedral and is surrounded by a number of interesting towns and villages. The towns of Úbeda and Baeza are literally crammed with important renaissance architecture whilst Alcalá la Real in the south contains a fascinating Moorish citadel.
Jaén’s natural areas include the Sierra de Cazorla National Park with its breathtaking scenery, isolated mountain villages and wealth of wildlife. In the south are the Sierra Mágina with its rugged mountain peaks and traditional Andalucían villages whilst the Sierra Morena represent Jaén and Andalucía’s natural border with the rest of Spain.Whilst it is warm and dry in the summer, snow can fall on Jaén’s mountains in the winter. Although rain in this area is sometimes scarce, the mighty Guadalquivir River has its source in the mountains of the Sierra Cazorla and runs across the middle of the province. Jaén’s atmosphere has been unspoilt by the 20th century and remains distinctively Andalucían. The characteristic olive studded landscape is seemingly endless when viewed from one of Jaén’s hilltop villages and in the quiet plazas, Jaén can seem like a world that time forgot.
