El Caminito del Rey Path

About this experience

A walk along the famous path of El Caminito del Rey. The route runs between the Guadalhorce-Guadalteba reservoir and the town of El Chorro. We will leave Seville to arrive two hours after our departure point at the Guadalhorce reservoir, located in the province of Malaga. From there we will start our walk parallel to the railway tracks where we will go through the gorges of the Gaitanes and the Gaitanejo. Its origin dates back to 1921 when King Alfonso XIII, after the inauguration of the Conde de Guadalhorce dam, crossed the previously built path. From this moment on it began to be called Caminito del Rey. After several years of disuse and deterioration due to lack of maintenance and control it became the most dangerous path in Europe causing numerous victims. We will leave in group with our guide to reach the entrance located near the town of Ardales in Malaga. Afterwards, we will take the opportunity to have lunch in a local restaurant before returning to Seville in the afternoon.
