Itinerary description
Espectacular ruta circular, completa y variada, que iniciamos en el Aparcamiento del Hundidero, la Presa de Montejaque, la Cueva del Hundidero, la localidad de Montejaque y la Ermita de la Escarihuela o Montejaque, regresando por la sierra de Mures. La ruta es de nivel moderado y puede resultar difícil al final para algunos senderistas, regresando por la Sierra Mures ya que es un terreno pedregoso y rocoso con un importante desnivel de bajada. Se encuentra situado entre el Serranía de Grazalema y de Ronda.

The first part (Presa and Cueva) is amazing! The second part, where you descend to the valley and walk near the Embalse, was very hard to follow, though. Where the map said we should walk, was knee-deep under water. So we tried to walk around it, but the surrounding grass was so muddy that several times we got stuck in the mud.
The little creek which we had to cross was also not so little - we had to take the boots off and wade through. All these detours took us so long, that in the end we couldn’t finish the whole tour :(
It was a sunny day and also hadn’t been raining for some days, so I really don’t know how it could be such different conditions from when the original tour was recorded.
It’s probably much drier in summer!
