Overview

Discover El Caminito del Rey, one of the most demanded and impressive visits. A tour in a unique natural environment through a breath-taking path that crosses the Gorge of the Gaitanes, in the province of Malaga. In 1921, El Caminito del Rey was named because of King Alfonso XIII who went there. The time and its disuse caused it to deteriorate greatly and become the most dangerous path in Europe, causing several victims. After a magnificent restoration work, the Caminito del Rey is currently perfectly passable without any risk, with a part built taking advantage of what was built by the Chorro station Hydroelectric Society. It is a walk parallel to the railroad tracks where you can walk and enjoy the famous route of the Gaitanes gorge and the Gaitanejo. The tour will be 7 kilometers from Ardales to Álora and that will be full of emotions and surprises. A beautiful experience for nature lovers, with spectacular landscapes and stunning photographs that you can take.

Breath taking. A must see!

Published on Nov, 2024

The group was organized and the tour guide (Merce) took great care of us explaining every step in both English and Spanish. The experience is breath taking.. The trip included visiting white villages -on Sundays only- and that added to its beauty. The village of Odin is charming and fabulous.

A great experience

Big thumbs up

Really enjoyed the experience. The walk was spectacular and it was great getting an idea of how and why it was built from our guide. Loved the paths winding around cliff edges.

nice

Published on Dec, 2023

very helpfull stuff.I did not show on time at the meeting point( got little bit lost in the city) , but the guard lady ( unfortunatelly I do not know her name) figure out where and how to pick me up , so the other travel do not waite for their pick up time. She was also informative during the bus ride. Also the stuff in office were so nice. I did one trip by myself and 2 other trips with my friend.

A perfect day

Published on Oct, 2023

Fantastic day activity! One of the most scenic and beautiful hikes in the area. The route is just stunning, the guides are informed and attentive, the whole experience is perfect. Overall the hike is pretty easy, but there are many steps and waking sticks are not allowed.
