Axarquia Awoke from Its Slumber www.theolivepress.es the olive press - November 15 - 28, 2012 21 ll about the xarquia A Issue 148 November 15-28 2012 A PEAK PRACTICE: Hiker Frigiliana-based writer David Baird arrives at the top of the has witnessed the land of rebellion El Lucero summit and resistance turn into a true tourist paradise How the Axarquia awoke from its slumber AKING up on the summit of El Lucero is a little like having a ringside seat at the birth of the world.As the dawn sky shifts from purple to gold, you glimpse the mountains of Africa rising Won the horizon above a silver sea. To the north, pine forests swim in the mists of Granada province, while below stark crags thrust up from dark val- leys to catch the first rays of dawn. Here and there a column of smoke reaches up from a fara- way farmhouse or hamlet. You are high above the Axarquia, the 988-square-kilometre eastern corner of Malaga province. And El Lucero, a lime- stone buttress soaring 1,700 metres above sea-level, is as good a place as any to appreciate this region’s natural grandeur. I had spent the night shivering in the ruins of an old Civil Guard post atop the mountain in order to research a book on the region. It is one of a number of relics left from the bitter struggle that during the 1940s and early 1950s saw guerrillas vainly attempt to overthrow the Franco regime. Their leader was a ruthless, charismatic character named El Roberto and legends about him and his band still circu- late among the villages of the Axarquia. For quite a while after his rebellion was crushed, not a lot happened in the Axarquia (which comes from the Arabic sharquiyya, meaning the eastern zone).

Poor communications meant the Eastern Costa del Sol was largely bypassed by travellers. And that’s the good news. For this zone largely avoided the worst aberrations of the devel- opment boom. Mass tourism has not swamped it and the jetset has focussed on other parts, thank goodness. The locals of Frigiliana, one of the least-spoilt villages, seem to have heeded the words of King Juan Carlos when he visited in 1998.
