Nestled in the southernmost part of Trasierra-Tierra de Granadilla, Santibáñez el Bajo is surrounded by two streams and extraordinary dehesas.

The Church of St. James the Apostle (15th century) and the Hermitage of the Most Holy Christ of Peace (18th century) are the most notable religious monuments.

Nature lovers will enjoy hiking through olive groves and vineyards, by abandoned wine presses, and over the Dehesa de Santibáñez, especially during the montanera or free-range season in the heartland of Iberian ham production.
