Overview

Senderismo en Torcal de Antequera desde Málaga

El viaje al Torcal de Antequera desde Málaga.

En la excursión al Torcal de Antequera os recogeremos en el centro de Málaga con nuestra furgoneta confort. Saldremos en dirección al Torcal de Antequera, el primer parque natural en Málaga y espacio protegido por la UNESCO. Vamos en un grupo pequeño (máximo de 8 personas) por lo que tiene la oportunidad de conocer al resto de viajeros durante el viaje (la mayoría de nuestros huéspedes son viajeros independientes de todo el mundo). Durante el viaje cruzaremos el valle del río Guadalmedina y el valle de Villanueva de la Concepción. Es una gran oportunidad para admirar el típico paisaje andaluz lleno de olivares, almendros y campos de trigo y habas.

La ruta por el Torcal de Antequera.

Después de 50 minutos de viaje llegaremos al parking alto del parque natural. Pronto a la mañana el parque natural está casi vacío puesto que hemos evitado la mayoría de los grupos excursionistas. El sendero escogido es el más hermoso, con las formaciones rocosas más destacable como el camello, la esfinge, el robot, las catedrales y el tornillo. Este último esta protegido como Monumento Natural.

Por la mañana es fácil ver cabras montesas, el principal mamífero del parque natural. Es fácil verlos en grupos en lo alto de las rocas. Avanzaremos tranquilamente por el sendero y cruzaremos los miradores más bonitos del parque natural. En ellos interpretaremos el paisaje para entender los procesos geológicos acontecidos en el parque.

Dejaremos los senderos más populares para descubrir sorprendentes figuras talladas en las rocas durante millones de años. Descubriremos amonites, fósiles y las zonas con mayor vegetación del parque. Este paisaje es único y singular en España y Europa.

En la última parte, alcanzaremos un mirador donde podremos disfrutar de las vista del valle y de los buitres leonados. Los buitres leonados tienen sus nidos muy cerca de la zona y bastante común verlos volando alrededor. Son grandes pájaros de alrededor de 2,5 metros que están en peligro de extinción, por lo que es un momento ideal para su avistamiento.

La vuelta a Málaga.

Todavía tenemos otra área por visitar donde se ubica el Tornillo del Torcal, un monumento natural con mayor protección dentro del parque. Por lo tanto, tenemos la oportunidad de visitar otro área con un paisaje diferente. Al terminar, nos subiremos de nuevo a la furgoneta para iniciar el regreso a Málaga. Os dejaremos en el centro de la ciudad, muy cerca del punto de encuentro.

Excepcional experience

You can find excellent hospitality and exceptional experiences at El Torcal with Alfonso. I liked the way how he could manage our group. He showed us really special places at El Torcal with spectacular views. And with goats I recommend this program from my heart.

Highly recommended

Great host, friendly with great English. Very knowledgeable about the place we went to (El Torcal) and even forwarded more information about other areas and tips of where to dine in Malaga later on that evening well after we all went our separate ways. Highly recommend a tour with Alfonso.

Very interesting

Great experience! I really enjoyed the hike and we also saw mountain goats, gryphon vultures, and many types of plants. Alfonso is very knowledgeble and he provided interesting explanations regarding the geological formations, and also shared with us more about Spanish society and industry. The hike was at a very comfortable pace and Alfonso was very hospitable.

Great time

I usually don't do guided hikes, but this was better than I expected. Alfonso pointed out interesting areas I probably wouldn't have notice if I didn't have a guide. He was very knowledgeable and funny. Had a great time.

Great trip!

It was a great pleasure to join this trip! It was like an adventure hike with group of the friends more than which I appreciated ;) we decided to make a hike even though tough weather conditions with incredible strong wind trying to blow us off the cliff! Alfonso was knowledgeable giving us insights to this region and through his jokes he distracted us a lot from feeling cold ;) I strongly recommend to do it! Mountains are amazing beautiful and 3h route provides active relaxation ;) perfect!

Nice trip

The weather was harsh and the trip was great! I wouldn't want it any other way! You could joke with Alfonso and tease him a bit and he repaid with the same. For that exceptional cold weather he gave us some options and made sure all of us are happy. You must meet him and see Torcal of Antequera with him!

Unique

With his background as a geologist, Alfonso could tell us a lot about the natural phenomena and unique rock formations in the beautiful Torcal de Antequera national park, information that gave this trip an extra valuable dimension. Alfonso's a good guide, who made sure everybody in his group felt comfortable; he lended a hand where needed, offered personal stories, and was interested in ours.

Als je iets leuks wilt doen in omgeving Malaga dan is dit zeker een aanrader. Alfonso is een leuke sympathieke man die veel weet van de historie en het gebied. Het was een leuke wandeling door een prachtig UNESCO gebied, het was wel koud toen we daar waren dus zorg voor gepaste kleding. Kortom, een dikke aanrader!

소규모의 인원으로 안전하고 즐겁게 안달루시아의 광대한 자연을 만끽할 수 있는 체험이었습니다. 진짜 로컬사람들만이 아는 그리고 즐기고 있는 멋진 곳을 다녀왔습니다. 야생동물도 많이 볼수 있었구요 계곡이랑 오솔길을 따라 걷는 하이킹도 즐거웠습니다. 다른 대중 교통수단으로는 갈수없는 곳이었고 개별적으로도 경험할 수없는 특별한 루트였습니다. 말라가에 오셨으면 도시만 볼게 아니라 이런 특별한 체험을 한번 해보시길 권해드립니다.

Beautiful place

Alfonso was a great host, the Torcal is a beautiful place with a breathtaking view at the end. It's more a ballad than a hike. I would expect a longer experience for the price.

Totally recommended

I would really recommend this hike. It is an absolutely wonderful place and Alfonzo was the perfect guide, didn't go too fast, gave a lot of information, (but not so much that you felt that you were overwhelmed). He provided all the things he advertised, picked us up promptly and we traveled in in a very comfortable van. It was an experience that was well worth it!

Fantastic tour

The tour was fantastic and well-organised. Alfonso is a very friendly and funny guide/geographer who knows the ins and outs (e.g. locations of fossils, vulture nests) of El Torcal de Antequera. The tour was semi-private (we had 6 people) which meant that we got to befriend everyone in the tour. The hike was not tiring despite rocky terrains. Definitely worth going for the breathtaking and unique scenary!

Enjoyable day

Thank you Alfonso for making our day so enjoyable. We met at a very convenient place near the station and from then on our host, Alfonso took great care of us. The drive out to Torcal wasn’t too far, across spectacular scenery towards the mountain. Alfonso is very friendly and knowledgable and made the journey seem shorter than it was. Torcal itself is quite spectacular and it seemed that few foreign tourists experience the beautiful park. I’m 54 and like to walk but I would recommend this to most people. The path is rugged but we went at an easy pace, stopping to view the scenery or listening to Alfonso imparting some information about the flora and fauna. The trek’s climax ends up on a rocky plateau with ancient fossil markings and a spectacular views. Although not guaranteed we did spot a mountain goat and vulture on our trek! All in all the excursion was great value for money. Comfortable transport, friendly and knowledgable guide and an amazing destination.

super enjoyable experience

I think, visiting Torcal on your own it's not that easy - one has to know where to go. But it's definitely worth doing it as the views are stunning. On top, having Alfonso as a guide is something special - not only he shows some spots off the main paths, shares his knowledge but also he manages to create a very positive dynamics in the group. a super enjoyable experience!

Definitely worth it

Alfonso picked us up at the meeting point, he was on time and very personable. He lead us on a hike that would be impossible to do without prior knowledge and experience in the area. We appreciated his consideration for all the participants, he needed to give information in both Spanish and English and we were of varied ages so he paced it well. It was an amazing area to hike, great vistas, great photo opportunities and lots of interesting things to see—- fossils, flora, fauna and of course the unusual geography of the area. He was super knowledgeable and answered all our questions and more. Make sure you wear good shoes—- runners or hikers, it’s very uneven terrain. Definitely worth it, check it out!!!

Alfonso has a great understanding of the Torcal, Antequera Park. He was knowledgeable of the geography, vegetation and animals found in the Andalucia region of Spain. I learned so much and found him to be an entertaining and fun guide. This hike was one of our highlights of our trip to Spain!

Das war ein super Ausflug!!!

Das war ein super Ausflug!!!! Sehr interessant und für jeden etwas dabei: Für Wanderexperten, Fotofreunde, entspannte Spaziergänger. Antonio hat mit viel Humor viele spannende Details über El Torcal, aber auch sein Leben erzählt und dadurch war der Ausflug sehr interessant. Ich würde mit Alfonso wieder wandern gehen :-)
