The hiking trail could be so beautiful... At the beginning of Frigiliana there is a very beautiful path over the irrigation canal with a railing on the side of the ravine. Unfortunately this railing ends after about 1.5 km, then the path becomes worse and more dangerous. Only sure-footed hikers with a head for heights should continue here. It's a shame, we wanted to descend a kilometer further into the dried-up riverbed of the Rio Higueron and hike back.

Very nice path on the water channel, first with a fence, fuse, later without

This track is not mentioned in the komoot maps. Appears that the canal has been recently renovated and new safety features (fence) added
