Zuheros

Zuheros once had its own halt on the Linares–Puente Genil railway line, served by a branch known as the "Oil Train" (Tren del Aceite) because it ran through olive-growing country. That service closed in 1985 and the track was later dismantled. Today the old route lives on as the Vía Verde del Aceite, a greenway trail that passes through the municipality and is now part of the area's tourist offering.

The town's main landmarks are its castle, the Cueva de los Murciélagos cave, and the parish church of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios. The church has carried that dedication since 1569, when the Bishop of Córdoba, Cristóbal de Rojas y Sandoval, named it after a much-venerated image of the Virgin that already had its own brotherhood. The brotherhood survived until roughly the mid-twentieth century and has since been revived; its main procession takes place on 15 August during the town's annual fair.

Zuheros also has an archaeological museum, a reserve for Iberian fauna called Iberfauna, and hosts an annual Cheese Fair that draws award-winning cheeses recognised at national and international level.

Zuheros is reached by car on the A-318 regional road. From Córdoba, the simplest route is the N-432 towards Priego de Córdoba, turning off just after Baena; alternatively, take the N-331 towards Lucena and turn off at Cabra. The village is small and quiet, easy to walk around at a relaxed pace.

It sits on top of a rocky outcrop, and several viewpoints around the village offer open views over the surrounding landscape.
