Yesterday in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
Todays walk was around the impressive Peñon Crag, which looms over Cortijo Rosario. El Peñon is the highest point in the Seville province, 3,700ft (1,130m) above sea level, offering dramatic views of the landscape around Algamitas and the neighbouring villages, hills and farmland. On the way back to the cortijo, we stopped for drinks on a lovely panoramic terrace.

Caminito del Rey
March 12 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
El Chorro gorge walk from the Guadalhorce Dam and reservoir. The El Caminito del Rey is a narrow cliffside path hanging 328ft (100m) above the Guadalhorce river. Originally built around 1905, and improved around 1921, it fell into disrepair, earning it the moniker ‘the most dangerous path in the world’ or even the ‘walk of death’.

The new Caminito del Rey was reconstructed and reopened to the public in 2015, with the route and design replicating (as much as possible) the old one, but with higher safety standards.

Then a free afternoon to explore Ronda. Ronda is a mountaintop city in Spain’s Malaga province that’s set dramatically above a deep gorge. This gorge (El Tajo) separates the city’s circa-15th-century new town from its old town, dating to Moorish rule. Puente Nuevo, a stone bridge spanning the gorge, has a lookout offering views. New town’s Plaza de Toros, a legendary 18th-century bullring, is one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks.Read more

Setenil
March 10 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C
Set off from our base Cortijo Rosario, walking through Algamitas farmland to the abandoned monastery of Caños Santos, where we had a fantastic lunch with amazing views. In the afternoon, we followed the Ruta de los Molinos along the river that runs through the white village of Setenil de las Bodegas. Built under the overhanging ledge of a gorge, Setenil is not only known for having standout architecture but also for bars, restaurants and food shops, which are the best in the region.
