description: The dramatic sierras around Ronda is a region which has in recent years become popular with people recoiling from the over development of the Costa del Sol but which still, if you know where to look, retains the basic elements of that elusive Arcadia so many of us seek. There are, of course, threats from dams, urbanizations, highways and the like, but the hard core of the region does not lend itself to violent change. The people are stubornly attached to their pueblos and festivities. The mountains cannot be pulled down or the sunsets plucked out of the sky. Somewhere in the sierras, there will always be a refuge.
