Somontín
Somontín is located in the Almanzora Valley, on the south face of the Sierra de las Estancias, in the province of Almería (Andalusia), in southern Spain.
It is at an 880 meters of altitude. This situation provides a very interesting climate, with summers much cooler and drier than in the towns located next to the Almanzora River, with several degrees less than in Olula del Río or Purchena. Summer nights are very pleasant, no problems sleeping due to the heat. In winter, when facing the sun, the days are milder.
The town has all the necessary services for day to day: shops, bakery, butcher, school, doctor’s office, pharmacy, bars, municipal swimming pool, sports facilities, ATM, town hall, etc …
Purchena and Olula del Rio are 10 minutes away by car, where we find the rest of the services that complement those of Somontín, such as bank offices, supermarkets or 24-hour medical services.
Somontín is accessed by the AL-6103 road that reaches the A-334 after 7 km. This road, a highway for the most part, connects, near Huercal Overa, with the Autovía del Mediterráneo, E-15.
