NACIMIENTO DE COÍN AND FIRE-LOOKOUT

From the Nacimiento de Coín, this walk will pass through the pine forest and across heath land. The route then continues up a stony incline to a flat path. After a short while on this path there is a steep and uneven climb to a mirador next to a fire lookout post and this has great views down to the coastline and surrounding countryside. It is a convenient point for a refreshment break. From there the route leads down a long fire break with an easy slope to the path which leads back to the starting point.
