Geography of Córdoba

Córdoba spreads along both banks of the Guadalquivir valley, which separates the farmed campiña in the south from the foothills of the Sierra Morena to the north, dominated by holm-oak dehesa. The Subbética ranges rise to the south-east. The climate is continental Mediterranean, and the city ranks among the hottest in Spain, with highs near 45 °C. Mediterranean scrub and the pine woods of the Sierra Morena carry the summer wildfire risk. Fun fact: Córdoba frequently records the highest summer temperatures in the country.
