Itinerary description

Linear trail from campsite to dramatic source of Rio Grande. Walk includes quite Yunquera streets, prior olive groves and avocado fields via quite winding tracks with great views back to Yunquera, Sierra Prieta mountains and down the Guadalhorce valley. Nacimiento of Rio Grande is abundant source of water. An interesting walk that is a little steep at the end.
