Unleash your most adventurous self with breathtaking views.
Andalucía, in southern Spain, is one of the country’s naturally richest, most varied, and most beautiful regions. But there’s much more to it than magical flamenco or mouthwatering tapas – it’s also full of natural treasures waiting to be discovered. For you, looking for something more than a simple walk outdoors around Ronda, this is the ultimate adventure.
Caminito del Rey (King’s Little Pathway) is a hanging trail about 1.9 miles long and 330 feet high. Perched over a large dam close to the Guadalhorce river, the gorge used to be the only railway access to the city of Malaga from inland Andalucía.
Just 1 hour away from Ronda, you can take a ‘wow’ look at the imposing views from the Gaitanes’ gorge and make your way through the trail with an expert nature guide who knows everything about this jaw-dropping, wondrous gift of nature.
Have your camera ready and whet your sense of marvel: a myriad of birds, rugged geology carved by the whims of the gods… even ammonite fossils can be found here, and the hanging bridge will have you reexamine your claims that you are not afraid of heights.
Ardales (Málaga), just 1 hour away from Ronda (37 miles).
The route is optimal during Spring and Autumn. It closes on Mondays.
Probably the most exhilarating physical challenge and impressive natural views you’ll get in Málaga.
