Have an adventure along the El Caminito del Rey and walk 100 meters above the Guadalhorce River. Discover the Conde de Guadalhorce Dam, Desfiladero de los Gaitanes Canyon, and Guadalhorce River's history and importance to El Caminito del Rey.

Meet your guide and board your bus for a ride towards Conde de Guadalhorce Dam. Begin your walking tour and learn how the dam is Málaga's main water reserve. Hear about the history of the Desfiladero de los Gaitanes and how the canyon was carved by the Guadalhorce River from your guide. Prepare to test your nerves on a high-up adventure along El Caminito del Rey.

The trip was excellent. The Comms prior to the visit were very good. My questions were answered promptly and the change in location was communicated clearly the day before. However what really made our trip was our English guide Ian. Being British ourselves, Ian was very easy to relate to as he was British himself. This made the tour extra personable. The hike is around 6km but we took regular breaks. It is a once in a lifetime experience. Would definitely book again

Wonderful experience. Our quide Jose Miguel from allinmalaga.com - Walking on the sun was excellent. He told us many interesting stories about the history flora and fauna of the area. Amazing views. We will definitely come back. Our trip started from Malaga and when returning back our driver was very kind and dropped us into our preferred address.
