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

Hiking

The Caminito del Rey - the small royal road - is an 8 km long hiking trail along the cliffs of the Desfiladero de los Gaitanes - hollow path of the bearded vultures - a gorge whose walls rise up to 400 m and which at its narrowest point is only 10 m. Despite the high rush, an absolute highlight in Andalusia.
