San Martín del Tesorillo, land of bandits (this weekend)

Illustration only

JIMENA / Tesorillo Traditional crafts, food and music of then and now, and plenty of fun are on at the typical market set up for this weekend at the sports pavilion at San Martín del Tesorillo. The themed event is based on the bandoleros (bandoleers, bandits) of the past couple of centuries that frequented the Ronda mountains, of which there were plenty. Over twenty stalls will be set up from Friday to Sunday, offering local foodstuffs and crafts, as well as a demonstration of falconry and the birds involved, and even a riding display. (Take the A-405 Algeciras-Ronda road and about 20 minutes from the coast is Tesorillo. You can't really miss it.)
