Two words you will hear
Romería — an ox-cart pilgrimage: carts, traditional dress, wine and food handed out along the way. The arrival is where everyone ends up, not the start.
Verbena — an open-air dance that runs late, with a live band in the square.
Guachinche — a small family place, often the front room of a farmhouse, serving their own wine and two or three home dishes.
Tell it where you are starting from and what you fancy, and it builds the day around the fiesta in El Sauzal: when to go, where to eat nearby and how to get back.
