The Town

Discover Cañaveral de León

Canaveral de León is a picturesque village in the province of Huelva, at the foothills of the Sierra de Aracena. Its main and most singular attraction is "La Laguna", a large spring-fed pool that occupies the town square and becomes a natural swimming pool in summer, this image is unique to Andalusia. For the pilgrim exploring the Huelva Jacobean routes, it's a refreshing and original stopover. The village, with cobblestone streets, offers a quiet atmosphere and basic services. It's an ideal place for a restorative break and to enjoy one of the most charming and personality-filled villages in the onuban sierra.
