Itinerary description

This walk is in the countryside around Teba and a ramble through the agricultural landscape to the ancient Watchtower.

From here, as you would expect, there are magnificent views of the surrounding campo with the mountains in the distance.

Whilst most of the walk is undulating there is a steeper climb up to the hill that the watchtower sits upon.


Distance: 9.3km

Difficulty: 3.5

Approx time: 3 hrs

Directions:
Take the A355 from Coin direction Campillos then join the A357 direction Campillos. Keep on this road past Ardales and at the first junction for Ronda take the A367 signposted Teba/Ronda.

After Km4 take the right turn signposted A7278 Teba.

Keep on this until after the Km7 sign, when you reach a cross roads signposted right to Teba, and the Cortijo el Puntal is on the left, turn into the parking area.
This is the start of the walk
