Archaeological treasures around Ronda

You probably already know the great attractions of Ronda such as the “Puente Nuevo”, with its majesty and its incredible views of the vast natural environment that surrounds the municipality. Also areas such as the historic centre with details that bring together what was once the Arab medina with Christian-style houses that were built later and create a very representative image of the passage of different cultures.

But Ronda and the surrounding area has many more attractions that are not always on the tourist’s lips, but are still spectacular and create a complete experience to your visit.

Immerse yourself in a journey through these two wonders of Ronda.

CUEVA DE LA PILETA

This cave is an archaeological jewel and a natural treasure of great importance in the whole province of Malaga. Its proximity and relationship with the city of Ronda, together with its amazing prehistoric discoveries and rock formations, make it an unmissable destination on your visit.

One of its main attractions is its collection of cave art dating back more than 20,000 years. These fascinating paintings on the cave walls depict hunting scenes, human figures and animals, giving us an insight into the life of the prehistoric inhabitants. In addition, different types of paintings can be observed, and the evolution of these paintings over the years is visible.

In addition to its artistic heritage, the cave offers a spectacle of geological formations that have evolved over time. Its stalactites and stalagmites form an underground natural wonder that amazes visitors.

The Cueva de la Pileta in Malaga is much more than just a tourist attraction, it is a portal to the prehistoric past and an impressive display of the geological wonders that the Earth can create.

CIUDAD ROMANA DE ACINIPO

Known in antiquity as “Ronda la Vieja”, Acinipo was a Roman city founded in the 1st century BC on a hill which, thanks to its strategic location in the mountains, made it an important enclave in the region, playing a vital role in the Roman Empire.

One of the treasures you should definitely visit is its impressive amphitheatre, which has stood the test of time and remains a stunning testament to Roman ingenuity. Carved into the hillside, the amphitheatre could seat around 2,000 spectators and was the setting for exciting events. You can walk through the stands and feel the energy of a place that was once full of life and excitement.

In addition to its rich archaeological heritage, Acinipo offers breathtaking panoramic views that take in the valleys and mountains of a beautiful setting, where you can contemplate the natural beauty of the region while immersing yourself in history.

These two attractive activities to do in the vicinity of Ronda are just two additional plans to all that you can see within the municipality, including visiting one of its museums, buying local products, visiting the walls of Ronda, taking a route through the Pueblos Blancos or exploring the Serranía de Ronda by bicycle.
