Bounded in the north by the province of Seville, in the east by Malaga and its western and southern portions, by the mountain ranges of Cádiz. El Gastor is prominently situated on top of Lagarin Peak.
In close proximity to the towns of Grazalema and Zahara, it is 1,060 meters above sea level which gives it the vintage point over all other close municipalities. This is the primary reason why it is often dubbed as the “balcony”.
A visit to El Gastor is a grand experience. Imagine looking out to houses illustriously painted white! This town serves as the “balcony” through which you see the world of pristine beauty.
Where exactly the name “El Gastor” originated?
Several theories were formed as to the origin of its name but one stands as the town’s favorite: The name El Gastor was coined from the words “Tomb of the Giant” as according to myth, “Dolmenes” inhabited the place long ago.
El Gastor is famous for its crafts.
