Baños de la Hedionda offers medicinal waters in Casares
The Baños de la Hedionda, located in the municipality of Casares near the Campo de Gibraltar, offer medicinal sulfurous waters within the Sierra de la Utrera. Known for their distinct scent, these waters have long been associated with mineral-medicinal properties.
Local legend suggests that Julius Caesar once used these waters to treat skin conditions, though historical certainty regarding this claim is lacking. While the current structures are more recent, the site gained significant popularity during the 18th century. The location provides a combination of natural scenery near the Manilva River and historical interest for visitors in the Andalusia region.
