Itinerary description

This is an easy and quite a panoramic walk.

We started this walk from the parking adjacent to the N340 but you could also drive down to the parking of Playa Cantarrijan.

The first part of this walk is along the very quiet and extremely scenic old N340 road(carretera antigua) and will take you gradually up to the restaurant called Mirador de Torro Gordo.

From there a track will lead you to the Torro Gordo as well as to the Mirador from which you will have extended views.

Then walk back along the old N340 road until you arrive at the narrow concrete road called Camino de Cantarrijan that will take you down, quite steeply, to the romantic beach.

The road up to the parking place at the N340 is beautiful, quiet out of season, and both on this road and on the road near Torro Gordo we saw several times ibexes, mountain goats.
