  • One of the most charming natural wonders of Andalusia, El Caminito del Rey is a walkway that is pinned along the steep walls of a gorge near the town of El Chorro. The incredible landscape and stunning views are something that can rarely be experienced firsthand and make it one of the most visited destinations for thrill-seekers across the world. Suspended nearly 100 meters above the river, the walkway is extremely narrow in certain sections, sometimes just a meter wide!

    The surge of adrenaline combined with the breathtaking scenic beauty surrounding you promises to be an unparalleled experience. A professional guide will be by your side throughout the walk, giving you incredible insight on the attraction, while also encouraging and guiding you along the exciting walkway.
