What to expect

A scenic drive inland from the Costa del Sol, the Caminito del Rey is one of Spain's most heart-stopping trails. And this hike through the legendary route in the Guadalhorce Valley is one you won't easily forget. You'll trek through the Gaitanes Gorge while learning of the unique geological formations of this awe-inspiring landscape.

From Malaga's Lake District, you'll set out on foot for the Gaitanes Gorge, the canyon carved out of the bedrock by the sweeping River Guadalhorce. Stroll along a recently renovated boardwalk set on the sheer face of the gorge, which in some places is nearly 700m deep and only 10m wide.

This walkway was originally built a century ago and was named Caminito del Rey – ‘the King's Walkway' – after King Alfonso XIII, who officially opened it. Your guide will explain all about the rock formations as well as the impressive feats of engineering.

    Travelled with a group of friends

    Het bezoek aan het dorpje Alvarès vooraf aan de wandeling Caminito del Rey was een echte verrassing. En zeer de moeite waard. De Engelse gids praatte alleen veel te snel, waardoor je soms even de weg kwijtraakte tijdens het verhaal.

    Niet leuk: bus kwam ons een half uur te laat oppikken dan was afgesproken. Op de terugreis werden de groepen herverdeeld over andere bussen zodat we allen sneller in ons hotel waren zonder nog vele andere stop. Dit was dus en positief

    De wandeling is prachtig, maar we moesten eerst 2 uur in een bergdorpje rondhangen en gingen uiteindelijk tegen 14.15 uur aan de wandeling beginnen, op het heetst van de dag, konden de gids niet volgen, raakte geïsoleerd van de groep, en halverwege half uur moeten rusten omdat we niet lekker waren geworden van de hitte. Daarna op ons 'tandvlees' met zijn 2 gelukkig toch nog de route uit kunnen lopen, maar voelde niet fijn. Was dus geen fijn tijdstip voor zo'n wandeling en dorp ervoor was te veel

    Minder; zeer lange tijd onderweg, anderhalf uur, voor ophalen andere gasten. Bij 2 hotels ruim 15 min gewacht, gids was op zoek nr de gasten. Daarna naar dorpje, de excursie startte pas om 14 uur. Zou dus beter als een halve dag excursie verkocht kunnen worden. Zeer veel extra tijd dus. Plus: de wandeltocht zelf en de kennis van de gids waren zeer goed! De chauffeur en touringcar ook prima! Tijdens onze wandeling was het 26 graden, goed te doen, wel water mee. Mogelijk in juli en augustus best pittig door de warmte.
