Three rivers go through the village. Some of the most beautiful natural landscape includes one of these rivers, the Guadalmina River. It forms a viaduct known as \u201cLas Angosturas\u201d (The Narrows) because of the narrowness of the ground and it is located next to the \u201cCharco de las Mozas\u201d (Pond of the Lasses), a hollow in the bed of the river that has been declared Andaluc\u00eda\u2019s Natural Monument. Benahavis has 300 days of sunshine a year as it shares the same weather as the Costa del Sol. Thus, any season of the year is perfect to enjoy the hiking trails around it and many hills from which you have views of the Spanish coast and parts of the African coast a hundred kilometers away.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/golfcircus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2005-01-17-13.24.58.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-30731 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/golfcircus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2005-01-17-13.24.58.jpg\" alt=\"Charco de Las Mozas Benahav\u00eds\" width=\"636\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/golfcircus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2005-01-17-13.24.58.jpg 636w, https:\/\/golfcircus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2005-01-17-13.24.58-300x283.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 636px) 100vw, 636px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Gastronomy is another jewel of Benahavis and it is honored at the Hotel School Sabor a M\u00e1laga, a reference top culinary training centre.
