Would you like to enjoy every corner of the well-known Caminito del Rey?

Built on the walls of the Gaitanes Gorge, the Caminito del Rey is a unique natural trail in the world. It begins in the municipality of Ardales, crosses Antequera and ends in El Chorro (Álora), a total of more than 7 kilometers of aerial route, an average of 100 meters above the Guadalhorce River. It was built a century ago by the Sociedad Hidroeléctrica del Chorro, owner of Salto del Gaitanejo and Salto del Chorro, which needed its workers to access these waterfalls. The name Caminito del Rey is due to the fact that King Alfonos XIII passed through it.
