Hiking

Caminito del Rey is a breathtaking trail in Andalusia that runs high above the Guadalhorce river canyon. It offers an adrenaline-pumping experience, stunning views, and a safe passage through the rocks. Ideal for nature and adventure lovers. Children from 8 years old are allowed, the route is not suitable for people who suffer from fear of heights.

From the viewpoint of the Gaitanejo dam you can see the cave houses of the Sierra Parda, which served as homes for the hydroelectric power station staff.
