The Caves

One of the best things to do in Ojén would be to take a sightseeing tour through the town. Ojen offers some of the most breathtaking views the Costa del Sol has to offer but also offers great tours of the local caves.

One such tour is of the Cueva de las Columnas, or Cave of the Pillars, named so because inside the caves you can find ancient pillars of prehistoric buildings. Once you have climbed all the way to the top of these caves, they offer the most amazing views over the valley.
