GUADALHORCE COUNTRYSIDE AND RIVER
The walk starts at a bridge over the Rio Grande. The track crosses the bridge and makes a loop arriving back at the bridge. This route passes through some splendid countryside, halfway up a valley, and is surrounded by hills. The walk affords great views across to Serriana de Ronda and back to Sierra Nieves. The first part of the walk has a slight incline but the remainder is quite flat with a decline at the end.
