Region: Estremadura

Extremadura is a land of broad horizons, deep history and wild nature. It is the cradle of the conquerors who forged empires and whose mark can be seen in the palaces of Cáceres and Trujillo. It is the indelible legacy of Rome, which shines with a unique splendor in Mérida, its ancient capital. Its landscape is the pasture, an idyllic ecosystem of holm oaks and cork oaks where the Iberian pig is raised, producing the best ham in the world. But Extremadura is also the intense green of La Vera, the waterfalls of the Jerte Valley in spring and the majestic flight of the vultures in the Monfragüe National Park. Visiting Extremadura is taking a trip to an authentic Spain without artifice, where history weighs and nature imposes its law, all paired with honest and powerful gastronomy.

Aviso de Viaje

The heat in summer is a very important factor! Temperatures can easily exceed 40-45°C. It is essential to bring water, sun protection and avoid any physical effort at midday. Extremadura is very extensive and has a low population density, the car is the essential means of transport to explore it. Secondary roads are good but often without shoulders.

Best time
**Spring** (March-May) is the ideal time, with perfect temperatures, the countryside in its maximum splendor and the cherry blossoms blooming. **Fall** is also an excellent option. **Winter** is mild and good for cultural tourism. **Summer** (late June to early September) is **extremely hot**, especially in the provinces of Badajoz and Cáceres, making indoor tourism inadvisable during the central hours of the day.
