Are you going out for a day trip\u00a0?\u00a0 How about a visit to Monda and its castle, Castillo de Monda.<\/p>\n

With starting point from M\u00e1laga Airport you can either drive inland via C\u00e1rtama or head along the A-7\u00a0 costal road towards Marbella. If you choose to take the A-7 along the coast line then turn off when you reach km 186 and head for Oj\u00e9n\/Monda. The exit is just next to the big shopping centre La Ca\u00f1ada.<\/p>\n

On your way to Monda, we suggest you turn off at MA-5300 and go for a hiking trip<\/strong> next to Refugio Juanar. About 15 minutes\u2019 drive on a small windy road will get you to Refugio Juanar where you can park the car.<\/p>\n

The walk\u00a0can easily be done in an hour and\u00a0the difficulty is low and can be considered an easy family walk.

The original construction of today\u2019s castle probably dates from the eighth century; and it fell into disrepair towards the end of the ninth century. During the centuries the battles between Christians and Moors\u00a0left the castle\u00a0in ruins the past 400 years. First in mid 1970s the rebuilt was started and today you will find a small boutique hotel with wellness and spa.<\/p>\n
