Hiking

The hiking trails around the Embalse del Conde del Guadalhorce reservoir are an ideal day trip destination. The best time is from September to May; in the summer months it is too hot, so the lake is more suitable for swimming. The circular trail leads through a short tunnel to the shore of the reservoir and then along the lake to the dam of the Rio Guadalhorce. This is also where the northern entrance to the Caminito del Rey is located.
