The Fortaleza de La Mota, a well-documented hilltop castle, dominates this walkable Andalusian town in Jaén province, positioned at the southwestern edge of the province where it borders Granada and Córdoba. Small enough to cover in a day, Alcalá la Real works well as a day trip from any of those three cities, and the surrounding area offers scenic viewpoints across the Sierra Sur comarca.
