Itinerary description

A lovely circular walk which passes through varied scenery and past an old acueduct.

From Gaucin drive down the MA-512 road towards El Colmenar (estación de Gaucin); turn left at Km.5.7 and drive all the way along a rough track until you reach a cattlegrid. Park just after the cattlegrid. To start the walk go uphill on the track with the chain across.
