    Hiking

    The duration of the entire route of the Caminito del Rey route (the section from the gate of one walkway to the other, plus the paths or forest tracks to get to/leave the area) is between 3 and 4 hours.

    Here the view drops up to 100m deep into the gorge. The corridor to the bridge narrows and therefore it blows much stronger here. Some have already lost their helmet here before.
