Itinerary description
A great hike with beautiful scenery.
A word of advice if your coming from Algeciras, it is better to continue until exit 54 of the highway, since exit 66 will take you via a section of road in need of some repair unless you’ve got an off road vehicle.
Although the Murta Estate is public, it is advisable to go during the week or out of hunting season otherwise it will impede your passage.
The ultimate goal is to reach the so-called Piedra Orá, a curious sandstone arch nestled among the cork oaks the formation of which is very similar to the nearby Arco del Niño.
The descent is through the Garganta del Agua laced which is laced in green moss back to the car.
