This walk initially follows Moorish irrigation channels and then passes through orange groves. About 2 km from the village a narrow track is taken passing over a stream by an idyllic wooden bridge before climbing steeply back into the village. The walk finishes in the Plaza where any refreshment will be well deserved.

This is an easy walk without any challenges, which leads to a mirador overlooking Ojén and a second mirador above Marbella. There are no major challenges on this walk and goes up through the pines.

This is a lovely walk starting at the Benahavis reservoir, then heading inland following the river, but with very little shade. The ground is stoney, so perhaps more a medium than easy walk, with gradients in places.

Due to limited parking the meeting point is at the Carpark by the church 2 kms before entering Benahavis and then car sharing to the starting point, but it is possible to also meet at the reservoir.

The walk is in the Rio Grande Valley close to Tolox where the river is still small. It follows a dirt track past pomegranate and orange trees and also olive groves.There are some hills and after rain there may be a couple of easy streams to cross.

A very scenic country walk initially until we reach the Alaminos river and then the path becomes a steady climb up the Loma Canalizo until reaching the Puerto Canalizo. Great views of the Mijas coast and Sierra de Mijas. This is a loop walk returning back to where we started.

A beautiful walk of about 2.5 to 3 hours in duration. It leads through the Graja pass ultimately to a picnic area, passing cliffs, fountains and interesting vegetation.

Las Huertas de Coín is a small hamlet in the countryside between Guaro and Coín. The walk is a circular route over the Rio Grande and past agricultural land. It has spectacular views of the Sierra de las Nieves.

This is an out and back walk starting at the Fuente Amargosa Health Spa in Tolox. Although this needs an extra half hour’s drive to the start of the walk, the drive is scenic and the walk, although shorter than usual, is well worth it

A hill walk in the same area of Tolox will be taking place on the same day so there will be an opportunity for walkers from both groups to meet up for pre-Christmas refreshments in the Venta Umami after the walk.
