Huelva is one of the least visited regions in Andalucía, but it has many unique places to discover and explore. Indeed, its escape - so far - from mass tourism is one of its attractions. It lies at the western edge of Andalucía, bordered by Portugal to the west, Seville province to the east and the autonomía (autonomy) of Extremadura to the north.
It is probably best known for the Parque Nacional de Doñana, one of Europe's most important wetland areas, and home to an incredible multitude of wildlife in its sand dunes, marshes, pine woods, salt flats and freshwater lagoons. In the north of the province is the gently rolling Parque Natural Sierra de Aracena y Picos de Aroche, a protected area with excellent walking opportunities and home to the famed cured ham from Jabugo.

| Parque Natural Sierra de Aracena y Picos de Aroche |
The Sierra de Aracena and Picos de Aroche natural park encompasses 184,000 hectares, an impressive 90% of it covered by woodland of mainly Mediterranean oak. The landscape is full of contrasts, with gently rolling hills and wooded valleys gradually giving way to dramatic rocky outcrops on high peaks.
Whitewashed towns and villages, often huddled round a large church or castle, are dotted around the Sierra, with a concentration of settlement along the N433 that runs east-west across the park. Away from these places, increasingly busy with mainly Spanish visitors, you can get a better idea of the tranquil nature of the villages and surrounding countryside.
