Overview
Join the Caminito del Rey group walking tour for an unforgettable hike along one of Spain’s most iconic walkways, led by an experienced guide. On this Caminito del Rey group walking tour, you will discover dramatic gorges, striking rock formations, and the living landscape of local flora and fauna.
🗺️ What to Expect
Your experience begins at the set meeting time by El Kiosko restaurant, close to the entrance of the route. After a short walk, you will reach the gate where your guide sets the scene, explaining why this area became so relevant in Spanish contemporary history, connected to key infrastructure such as the electric power house, the railway, and the reservoir.
From there, the route flows through a series of jaw dropping natural corridors and viewpoints. You will continue along the walkway past Gaitanejos gorge, the Hoyo valley, and the impressive Gaitanes gorge, then on to the Ribera bridge. Your guide concludes the tour just before the hanging bridge, then you cross it independently and continue walking straight for about 20 minutes to the public bus stop for the return to the starting point.
