About Ronda

Ronda is truly a paradisiac destination, and not in the traditional sense of turquoise waters and white sands. It is renowned for its stunning cliffs that tower approximately 750 meters above sea level. The picturesque view is complemented by vineyards and a bubbling stream that flows through the narrow gorge. The Guadalevín River divides the city into two parts, which are then joined by the antique Puente Nuevo bridge that almost seems to grow out of the cliffs.

Thanks to the intricate positioning of the city, Ronda was not easy to access centuries ago, but it has helped preserve many of its historical landmarks. As you explore the city, you will mainly encounter a blend of Moorish and traditional Andalusian architecture characterized by white-washed houses. The Moorish heritage in Ronda is not reflected only in the architecture—one of the city’s main tourist attractions is the Arab Baths (Baños Arabe), which are known as the best-preserved ones in Spain.

Things to do when you get to Ronda

Wave goodbye to your Daytrip driver after finishing your route from Malaga to Ronda and get immersed in Ronda’s beauty. Make sure you add these recommendations to your itinerary:

Visit the first bullring from outside

You can start your tour of Ronda by visiting the Plaza de Toros, the oldest bullring in Spain, built in 1785. Although only one bullfight is held each year, the museum inside offers insights into Spain's bullfighting tradition. However, we recommend admiring it from the outside to avoid supporting an example of animal cruelty. Bullfighting is a significant part of Andalusian history, and viewing the bullring from the exterior allows you to appreciate its historical importance without supporting bullfighting.

When is the best time to visit Ronda

The best time to visit Ronda is either in spring or fall, particularly in April and May or September and October. During these months, temperatures are more moderate, making it ideal for exploring the city comfortably without the large crowds of peak tourist season. Additionally, the blooming flowers of spring and the yellow-hued leaves of fall will add a picturesque charm to your visit to Ronda.

If you prefer to avoid extreme heat, it is advisable not to travel to Ronda in July and August. During these months, Andalusia experiences exceptionally high temperatures that can be unbearably hot for outdoor activities.
