The name 'Extremadura' can be loosely translated as 'the back of beyond'. The landscape is wild and open, but, especially in spring, also has a very attractive face, with flower-lined streams and a profusion of wildflowers in the dehesas. In recent years, the government of Extremadura has greatly improved the tourist facilities, and nowadays the region can be easily explored on your own. Our Guide introduces you to this fascinating region and provides you with itineraries to discover the area at your own pace.
