What You Will Do
On this trekking tour you will hike Caminito del Rey (King's Little Pathway), a narrow-gauge service railroad that was built for workers to get to El Chorro hydro-electric plant.
With a rich history, this pass was the only railroad access to Malaga from the inner cities of Andalucia.
Once known as ´the most dangerous hike in the world´, this experience is one to excite your senses as you discover The Gorge Desfiladero de los Gaitanes. The Caminito del Rey has been fully renovated and is safe and ready to accommodate our small group on this amazing pathway.
You will be accompanied by a guide who will help you along the way.
This excursion includes round-trip transportation from Seville.
