Itinerary description

A hike with great views from the centre of Benahavis. The route begins by the Rio Guadalmina and quickly heads up into the hills. The entire route is on good paths with the exception of the final short but very steep climb. The 360 views from Monte Mayor, the ruins of the moorish castle overlooking the town are magnificent.
Great choice of places for post walk refreshments / lunch in town

- Presa del Guadalmina (0.8 km)
- Puerto Velate (3.4 km)
- Montemayor (8.1 km)
