Alfarnate is the most northerly village of Axarquia, situated 49 kilometres from Malaga and 45 kilometres from the coast at Torre del Mar. It lies on a fertile plain sheltered and hidden by the surrounding Sierra Alhama and Sierra El Jobo mountains at an altitude of 925 metres, and has a population of 1,600. Against the mountain backdrop, the flat cultivated land forms a contrasting scene. The economy is based on agriculture, the main products of which are olives, almonds, chickpeas and cereals. Alfarnate is on the scenic Route of Olive Oil and Mountains.
Typical of the area, the village of Alfarnate has prehistoric origins with later Moorish occupation and architecture. Unlike most other villages in Axarquia, Alfarnate is flat with wide streets. The river Palancar winds through the village dividing it in two joined by three picturesque bridges. The name, Alfarnate, is derived from the 10th century Arab Al-farnat which means flour-mill. The 16th century church of Santa Ana has a Mudejar minaret.
Alfarnate town is overlooked by the small Cerro del Santo Cristo mountain, which has a sanctuary on top of the same name, where outdoor mass is sometimes held. The buildings in the town are mostly two storey and typically whitewashed. The most historic street, Calle Secretaría, houses numerous 16th century buildings and the Plaza del Ayuntamiento where bullfighting used to take place during the September festival.
