Guadix is located in the province of Granada on the banks of the Río Guadix.
Guadix is known for its cave districts made of soft tufa rock.
There were about 2000 dwelling caves.

Guadix is a lively rural city that, apart from its cathedral, is known for its Barrio de las Cuevas, with more than 2,000 homes inside the rock. Located in the natural corridor between Sierra Nevada and Sierra de Baza that directly connects the coast of Almería with the interior of the Peninsula, it has been a place with a lot of activity since Phoenician times.

Hiking

Sights in the small town of Guadix include the cave dwelling district, the cathedral and the Moorish castle, which is closed due to extensive renovation work. The cave district Barrio de las Cuevas with its two viewpoints is worth a visit. From there you have a magnificent view of the snow-white facades of the entrances to the cave dwellings with their mushroom-shaped chimneys, of the city of Guadix with the Alcazaba and the surrounding hills and mountains.
