Highlights of Marbella

Walk participants will head into Parque de las Ranas following the river to the seafront. They will then proceed along the busy Marbella paseo maritimo following the orange trees and passing the El Fuerte hotel before turning inland towards the Parque de la Represa. After walking up the steady sloping paths in the park they will reach the lakes where sunbathing turtles might be seen. Leaving the park via a set of steps participants will enter the upper part of Marbella old town where they will proceed down the picturesque streets to Plaza de los Naranjos. There will be an opportunity to take refreshments in the old town.
Participants will the head to the Parque de la Alameda via the Iglesia de Nuestra Senora de la Encaracion. Participants will proceed from the park towards the seafront along Avenida del Mar with its many interesting and impressive statues. They will then return along the Paseo Maritimo and Parque de las Ranas to the starting point.

Note - There is crazy pathing in the Parque de las Ranas, a gentle uphill slope in the Parque de la Represa and approx 30 steps to ascend to the Marbella old town.
