+13 photos
Discover El Caminito del Rey, one of the most demanded and impressive visits. A tour in a unique natural environment through a breath-taking path that crosses the Gorge of the Gaitanes, in the province of Malaga.
In 1921, El Caminito del Rey was named because of King Alfonso XIII who went there. The time and its disuse caused it to deteriorate greatly and become the most dangerous path in Europe, causing several victims.
After a magnificent restoration work, the Caminito del Rey is currently perfectly passable without any risk, with a part built taking advantage of what was built by the Chorro station Hydroelectric Society.
It is a walk parallel to the railroad tracks where you can walk and enjoy the famous route of the Gaitanes gorge and the Gaitanejo.
The tour will be 7 kilometers from Ardales to Álora and that will be full of emotions and surprises.
A beautiful experience for nature lovers, with spectacular landscapes and stunning photographs that you can take.
