Caminito Del Rey

The 'new' Caminito del Rey was re-constructed and reopened to the public in 2015. The the route and design of the new path keeping as closely as possible to the old 1921 path. The famous boardwalk sections are constructed with wooden slatted transverse planks and a simple 1.2m-high three-wire guard rail. In places the path is only one metre wide, hanging to the cliff face. The 'old' path can be seen just below. A highlight is the steel suspension bridge with an open grid decking across the gorge, just next to the original emblematic aqueduct bridge.

Rock Climbing

The single and multi-pitch routes on offer and the grade range will satisfy all who are planning a visit. The routes range from world-class hard routes, through a vast selection of superb mid-grade pitches, to an ever-increasing number of sectors and whole crags that give climbers operating in the easier grades plenty of choices. As well as the plethora of single-pitch sport climbs there is an increasing number of multi-pitch fully-bolted lines, with a number of routes of up to around ten pitches across the grade range.

Via Ferrata

The Via Ferrata is an exciting vertical crossing with steel rungs fixed on the mountain where you climb up, cross bridges, and make a 35-meter zip line. The route can take 2-3 hours and requires a via-ferrata kit and pulley, be sure to take plenty of water especially on hot days.

Lakes

During the hot summer months the El Chorro lakes are one of the most popular destinations for a day out in the country. You can swim in the turqouise waters, rent paddle boats and kayaks, fish or just walk the many trails that snake around the spectacular rocky outcrops. There are several lakeside cafes and restaurants with terrific panoramic views and even though the lakes are very popular, their shores are so vast that it is normally easy to find a quiet place to sunbathe, swim and picnic.
