Media Legua: between Mijas Pueblo and Las Lagunas

Media Legua is a small community beside the road linking Mijas Pueblo with Fuengirola, halfway between the village and Las Lagunas. Houses nestled among greenery, with the Sierra de Mijas as a backdrop, define its landscape.

The best of both worlds

Living or staying in Media Legua gives you a choice each day: head up to the historic centre or down to the coast.

• Towards the village: the Iglesia de la Inmaculada Concepción, beside the old town walls, is one of Mijas’s most recognisable sights.

• Towards the coast: Las Lagunas is home to shops and cultural life, with the Teatro Municipal Manuel España as its main venue.

Walking

The Sierra de Mijas is very close by, with trails starting from the village itself.
