Everything you need to know about Spain's forgotten 'wild west'
Welcome to Spain's most hospitable region!​
Extremadura offers an authentic, unspoiled glimpse into Spain's history and natural heritage, away from the tourist crowds.
​Spain's 'wild west' boasts Roman ruins, and exciting cities that were the birthplaces of gladiators and conquistadors. Along with UNESCO-listed cities like Mérida and Cáceres there are lesser-known cities that rarely see a visitor and remote villages where you'll be welcomed like an old friend.
​You can hike among stunning landscapes and abundant wildlife in the cork forested hills and dehesa woodland.
Famous for ancient cuisine dating back to Roman times, Extremadura combines vibrant fiestas with a relaxed, rural pace of life that's increasingly rare in modern Spain. ​
