Itinerary description

Lighthouse trail starts from Puerto Rico Bajo. To get there, take the road to Ojén from La Cañada Marbella, immediately exit left at cemeterio- winding street to small open area- opposite road that leads to mountain passes. The walk takes you towards the cliffs up the plateau, left along the ravines in the forest and up and down the valleys, with great coastal views before returning back. Some small rivers to cross.
