Overview

Caminito del Rey. Excursión desde Málaga

El viaje al Caminito del Rey

En esta excursión al Caminito del Rey en un grupo pequeño (8 personas) descubrirá una de las gargantas fluviales más bonitas del mundo. Saliendo desde el centro de Málaga en nuestra furgoneta confort (viaje de 50 minutos), nos adentraremos en el valle del río Guadalhorce. Este valle es único en la provincia por su especialización en plantaciones de cítricos, naranjos y limoneros. Ascenderemos y cruzaremos las montañas y algunos pueblos blancos.

Una vez en Ardales, entraremos en el parque natural donde podrá disfurtar de las vistas sobre el embalse del Guadalhorce, las plantaciones de olivos y almendros en un paisaje dominado por pequeñas colinas.

La ruta a lo largo del Caminito del rey

Una vez en el parking, empezaremos el Caminito del rey (8 kms) cruzando el túnel y adentrándonos en el bosque. Tenemos 1,5 kms hasta la entrada oficial y la primera garganta. Una vez en la zona oficial nos pondremos los cascos y caminaremos hasta la primera garganta: la garganta del Gaitanejo.

En este primer cañón te verás sorprendido por su estrechez y por la belleza de sus colores. Cuando el sol acaricia la roca caliza los naranjas resaltan ofreciendo una postal única. Pararemos en los puntos más singulares para explicar la historia, fauna y flora de estas tierras.

Una vez finalizado el primer cañón, caminaremos por el valle del Hoyo. Las vistas desde el valle hacia el próximo cañón son de una indiscutible belleza. Una vez en el bosque, haremos una parada y un picnic con productos locales.

Estamos llegando a la última parte del Caminito del Rey y llegando al segundo cañón, de mayor belleza que le primero. En el desfiladero de los Gaitanes, el Camino se suspende 110 metros en vertical sobre el río. Las vistas son sobrecogedoras y la sensación de caminar sobre el aire máxima. Descubriremos en esta parte algunos fenómenos geológicos, fósiles y buitres leonados. Al final del desfiladeros de los Gaitanes, cruzaremos el espectacular puente en suspensión, punto álgido de la ruta.

El Camino de vuelta

Todavía tenemos que cruzar la última parte, cruzando el pantano de El Chorro hasta el pueblo del mismo nombre. Allí cogeremos el autobús lanzadera para volver al punto de inicio. Desde allí nos volveremos a Málaga.

Si no encuentra su plaza en esta excursión puede reservar la excursión al Caminito del Rey en mini bus.

Thank you for this amazing day

Alfonso was very personable. The meeting spot was easy to find and very close to the old city. The drive was comfortable. Alfonso was animated and detailed in his explanation of the area and history. He provided water and a poncho for possible inclement weather as well as a small picnic lunch. His group is 8 maximum making it easy to hear and enjoy and participate. The walk is for the most part flat. He stated he is in communication daily with the canyon staff re safety concerns. Would definitely recommend.

Great experience, very unique and spectacular landscape. Alfonso is a great guide, very friendly and extremely knowledgeable and qualified about his subject. He did everything to ensure that everyone on the tour got the most out of, taking great photos, having a picnic and sharing his knowledge not just about the Caminito but also about wines, crops, Spain ..... all very interesting. Great trip, go on it, you wont be disappointed.

Awe inspiring

An awe inspiring experience with a caring, interested and interesting person. I am not used to heights but I felt safe and secure with Alfonso guiding. I also wondered if at 65 years old and not really an outdoors person I would manage the trek , but it was easy going. Alfonso kept his eye on all of us as a whole while engaging with us as individuals as well and recounted many stories of the mountains in an informative and humorous manner. I highly recommend this tour.

Not to be missed

This is an experience not to be missed, especially with Alfonso who was attentive, informative and a great guide to be with on this exciting adventure. His communications before and after the event were exceptional and his photos of his guests (which he forwarded immediately afterwards by email ) were of exceptional quality and a great souvenir of the trip. He actively engaged with all members of the group who were of diverse origins --- French, American, Australian, Korean and Cuban. He was keen to learn information from all of their backgrounds and has obviously travelled worldwide. Overall, a very enjoyable and memorable trip to a remarkable place. Great photo opportunities to take snaps that will astound your friends and family: they'll think you were so brave to attempt these pathways, although there was never any concerns about its safety. Many thanks, Alfonso, from Ken and Leta

Nice activity

This was one of my last outings during my vacation in Malaga and I'm so glad I did it. I'm not really someone who would even consider this as a vacation activity, but this excursion was well worth it. The view was absolutely breath taking and Alfonso has so much knowledge about Caminito del Rey. You should definitely do this!

An once in a life time experience

This is an once in a life time experience! The scenery in Caminito Del Rey is absolutely breathtaking! The walkway is a combination of ease and excitement, you get to walk on suspended bridge and wooden walkpath on the side of the cliff for a good amount of time during the hike, then you get to enjoy the thrill and the beautiful scenery surrounding you - it’s like otherworldly. You won’t regret going! Most importantly - Alfonso is really nice and funny and a great guide! :) Thank you so much!

Incredible experience

Our group of 4 went on this tour with Alfonso to Caminito Del Rey, and we are SO glad we did. He is organized, thoughtful, and super friendly! He brought us delicious snacks and drinks for our hiking tour- which shows he goes above and beyond to take care of you on this experience. I would only recommend to do this hike with Alfonso because it was such a good experience with a perfectly sized group of guests. Thank you so much for an incredible experience and your kindness, we will never forget it!

Het is groots en indrukwekkend, vind je het leuk om er alleen doorheen te lopen voor de foto's zou ik niet met een tour gaan. Houdt je er juist van om er meer over te weten te komen, de tour doen. Dan zeker bij deze aanbieder, hij is erg vriedenlijk en geïnteresseerd. Ook weet hij veel over de rest van Malaga en geeft hiervoor tips.

Sooooo beautiful

This was the highlight of y Spain trip. I went to 10 different major cities and this was the most memorable of all. If you’re in Malaga, you just have to do this. It’s so beautiful. Alfonso was a great guide and had a lot of knowledge about the location and it’s history. I’m glad I booked this and you should too!!!! Just do it. If you like nature, walking, hiking, exploring and learning, don’t think twice.

Amazing walk

An excellent tour. I really recommended this option to visit the Caminito Del Rey- Alfonso has great Knowledge, travelling in a small group is much more comfortable Than on a bus and more interesting than hearing the information from guides talking to larger groups. Alfonso even provided a little picnic.

Alfonso heeft ons een prachtige middag gegeven. We waren met 8 mede wandelaars allen 50 plussers. Tijdens de tocht was er ook tijd/mogelijkheid om elkaar te leren kennen. We waren de laatste groep die die dag startte, dus was het rustig op de caminio. Alfonso weet veel van het gebied en de natuur te vertellen. Een uitstekende middaginvulling. Nog dank voor de leuke foto'!

Highlight of our trip

Met us on time at and easy to get to location. Nice clean comfortable car to get the group of 8 to the natural reserve. Had great talks and explanations along the way - car ride , bus back to car and the hike itself. Lovely Spanish snack midway: water , perfect bananas and churaso, Spanish cheese and fresh bread. Breathtaking views. . Not a strenuous hike , nice easy inclines mostly flat. A highlight of our week in Malaga for sure.

im vergleich zu anderen touranbietern startet alfonso diese tour bewusst später, so dass man nicht mit den massen die alle früher starten diese einzigartige tour genießen kann. zudem sind seine gruppen auf max 8 personen begrenzt (andere anbieter haben 20-30 teilnehmer), somit also sehr angenehm und man hört definitiv immer alles, wenn er was erklärt. man kann ihn jederzeit was fragen. er ist sehr offen und hat eine sehr herzliche art und spirit. er weiss ganz genau wie man sich von anderen anhebt.

Great trip that you should definitely do while in Málaga! Alfonso is clearly very knowledgeable about everything pertaining to the outdoors from plants to fun facts about the hiking area! He has a nice picnic for a rest, even though the hike itself is not strenuous in the slightest. Was a nice walk the entire time. Book this!

Amazing time

Anyone staying in or near Malaga should seriously consider this trip! It was absolutely fantastic but not for the faint hearted. Anyone afraid of heights or perhaps that is claustrophobic most definitely wouldn't enjoy this as much. Alfonso was a great tour guide that made the hike light hearted and fun! He could relate to anyone in the group, young or old, and made it an all around amazing time!

Fantastisk oplevelse. En uforglemmelig tur. Alfonso har blik for den enkelte gæst, og han er meget hjælpsom. Uddelte vand ved starten af turen, og havde bananer, brød, ost og pølse med. Stod i kø på holdets vegne, både ved indgangen og ved shuttlebussen. Lækker og komfortabel VW Van.
