Itinerary description

This is a really lovely short walk, showed to me by Patrick Elvin. There are 360 degree open views of the countryside around Jimena, San Pablo and Gaucin. The terrain is open hillside and some rough tracks.

Avoid the obvious "deviation" on this wikiloc track and go straight down the middle of the open field. We went down to the right and needed to loop back up in order to get past a bank of trees
