Itinerary description

This is a good walk only 1 hours drive from Malaga. We start the walk by gently climbing up the mountain. A little steep at first then a gradual easy climb for about 90 minutes through Olive groves, and a forest. As we walk up the mountain the views get quite spetacular all around. After the climb we come into a large Jurassic valley. Here we views of the spectacular mountain range. Picnic at the highest point of the walk 1100 metres above sea level. Now it is nearly all downhill again with fantastic views all around this beautiful area. You can see for miles, and miles all around. The walk is all on wide farms tracks with a small section being concrete.
