Frequently asked questions
How many days should I spend in Ronda?
While Ronda can be explored in a single day, we highly recommend staying for at least two or three days. This will give you enough time to fully experience the city’s main attractions at a relaxed pace and discover the charming white villages (pueblos blancos) in the surrounding area. A longer stay ensures you won’t miss any of Ronda’s hidden gems and allows you to truly immerse yourself in the local culture and atmosphere.
How do I get to Ronda?
Ronda is easily accessible by car, train, or bus. If you’re driving, the city is well-connected via scenic mountain roads from Málaga, Seville, and other major Andalusian cities. The train journey from Málaga or Seville offers spectacular views of the countryside. Regular bus services also connect Ronda with nearby cities and towns, making it convenient for travelers without a car.
What's the weather like in Ronda?
Despite being located in Andalusia, Ronda’s weather can be quite different from coastal areas. Summers are hot and dry, with temperatures often reaching high levels. However, winters can be surprisingly cold due to the city’s elevation and inland location at over 750 meters above sea level. We recommend packing layers if you’re visiting during the cooler months, as temperatures can drop significantly, especially in the evenings.
What are the must-see attractions in Ronda?
The most iconic landmark is the Puente Nuevo (New Bridge), which spans the dramatic El Tajo gorge and connects the old Moorish town with the newer part of the city. Other essential sites include the Real Maestranza bullring, one of the oldest in Spain, the Church of Santa María la Mayor in the beautiful Plaza Duquesa de Parcent, and the Mondragón Palace. All of Ronda’s main attractions are conveniently located within walking distance, making it easy to explore the city on foot in about 30 minutes from end to end.
