Day trip to Caminito del Rey from Malaga

This excursion to Caminito del Rey from the city of Malaga is one of the main getaways to get to know the nature of the inner province of Malaga. The famous Caminito del Rey is a man-made work with amazing walkways anchored to the walls of the Gaitanes Gorge.

It is a natural area and a Special Protection Area for birds (ZEPA), as well as an environment full of history that is documented in the large number of archaeological sites that surround the area. This means that since ancient times this area was of special interest. Its water and hydroelectric infrastructures, which were located in the area in the 19th and 20th centuries, continue to be a good example of durability.

Description

Caminito del Rey is the day trip in Malaga par excellence. It combines nature, the beauty of the landscapes created naturally such as the gorge, a narrow pass with steep walls that opens between two rocks or a crack in the ground where we find currently some hanging bridges.

Also the water and the dam are a spectacle on their own. As soon as we reach the area of the Conde reservoir, where the waters of the Guadalhorce river are retained, we will find the Chorro dam.

We will start the tour on foot from the entrance through the small tunnel that is right next to the Restaurant el Kiosko. That’s when we’ll start walking in the direction of ticket control.

There is no need to queue, our guide will be ready with your ticket to enter.

The walk along the Caminito del Rey begins now! Now in about 2.5 hours our guide will explain about nature, birds and endemic flora. We will also discover how the famous Caminito and the suspension bridges were created, as well as the secrets of their construction.

Highlights

Enjoy this tour combining the unique history of the place and the natural environment that surrounds it. Follow our guides through the Sierra de Huma and the Gaitanes gorge.

We booked a tour into the Sierra Nevada starting from Granada. Carlos our tour guide and driver prepared a very beautiful custom tour for us. He showed us amazing viewpoints, we did some hikes through the awesome scenery of the the sierra and talked about geology and history. It was super interesting and entertaining. That's would normally the end of the review...but I forgot my glasses in Carlos' car and had a super tight time window for my departure from the airport. When I realised that I was already in the taxi to the airport...I contacted Discovering Spain by Whatsapp. The website of Discovering Spain told me 'closed on the afternoon'. But a friendly team member read my message and called Carlos. Carlos whatsapped me he could be at the airport in 20min - 5min to my boarding. We met at the security (I was already screened) and I had my glasses back. Awesome reaction and awesome service by Discovering Spain and the man of the day Carlos. Thank you!

We were admittedly nervous when we booked a guided tour of Alhambra with Discovering Spain because everything was booked for our chosen date. When we called they told us that more places would open up so we went ahead and booked it. We followed up many times with them (probably too much) and they were patient with us. They confirmed our tickets and when the day came everything went smoothly. Our guide Cristina was excellent. She was soft spoken and was a pleasure to listen to her throughout the tour with interesting facts and pointed out fascinating details all through Alhambra and Nasrid Palaces. We couldn’t imagine visiting this beautiful site without such a great guide.
