Guadalest was a highlight of our visit to Spain and would love to come back to see more of this neat town at our own pace. Guadalest is not wheelchair accessible due to the climbing steps, so be prepared to be physically active during your stay. There are plenty of shops in the town with local vendors and it didn't feel overly crowded during our quick stop. Enjoy the 360 views of the sweeping mountain tops as you walk around the village. Guadalest is truly a wonderful place to see in Spain and I highly recommend going!

It's full of tourists who probably have come from the beaches close to here. In this beautiful village that is located on top of a little mountain, you can walk and enjoy the breathtaking views on every side, or sit down at a bar and have a drink - which is very reasonably priced. The green/blue marsh (Pantano in Spanish) that is covered by a yellow/white mountain range is probably the greatest attraction of Guadalest. However, if you wish to spend more time, you can visit one of the few museums around the village. There's one that is a traditional house. The entrance for this one is free, but photography is not allowed.
