Tough to get to, but worth it.
The experience of walking on the sides of mountains is exhilarating. From Granada it’s about a 2-hour drive west. But the trail hike was worth it. We booked direct a guided tour and purchased the prepaid parking at the visitors center. Then a round-trip ticket on a bus, an additional 2,5 Euros each, takes you to walking distance to the entrance and back afterwards. The trail hike is about 2-hours and the whole day trip took about 8 hours with the car drive and extra walking to and from the entrance and exit. So lots of walking.

Caminito del Rey
Everything perfectly organized. Schedule meticulously adhered to. Very competent nice tour guides.But everything already very touristy and overcrowded who is not deterred from walking in groups of about 25 people through dad valley, will still find surely joy in the really impressive landscape.

Great day out in Camineta del Rey.
Great day out using Visitanddo company. Alan was our tour guide and he was great. Bus picked us up in Malaga with very clear directions where to get it. We stopped in mountain village to grab breakfast and continued on to the gorge. It was a top class trip and the walk in total was around 8km.
