Itinerary description

Camino Copaipas y Beatas, Camino al Ventorro Mota and Camino de Gibraltar

This is a really lovely loop - mostly on tracks and following three old public caminos, but also with a stretch along the River Genal which involves wet feet (in the summer) and would not be recommended during the winter months.
