Puerto de la Fresneda

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The port of La Fresneda is located about 480 meters above sea level, on the old Camino de los Puertos that leads to the natural monument of the Las Buitreras canyon. It is also very close to the Fresneda spring, over which they have installed a casket.

From here there is a spectacular view of Sierra Blanquilla and Sierra de los Pinos.

Buitreras Viewpoint

Highlight • Gorge

The Buitreras canyon was declared a natural monument in 2003 and is part of the Alcornocales Natural Park, which is home to towns from Cadiz and Malaga. This beautiful landscape traced by the Guadiaro river takes its name from the large number of griffon vultures that inhabit it.

Puente de los Alemanes

Highlight • Bridge

The true essence of this place is not located in the bridge but in the spectacular views that it offers. This 1918 construction is located between two walls of the Buitreras canyon, an impressive ravine that reaches 225 vertical meters at its highest point. Thus, from here you can see the Guadiaro River in the background, running between the narrow limestone walls that make up this incredible landscape.

As for the bridge, it is actually a conduit two meters in diameter and six kilometers long that carries water to the Buitreras hydroelectric plant.

Beautiful access to the river and a large "pebble beach" for lying down. From here you can swim into the gorge. Fantastically clear water with lots of fish. Access via the hiking trail is very easy and can be done by almost anyone. Certainly the highlight of this hiking trail.
