    Via Verde along the coast, a great thing! The route also goes through impressive tunnels blasted into the rock. The tunnels are located just before the town of Rincón de la Victoria and were originally built for a train that traveled from Málaga to Vélez. Both a passenger and a freight train ran along the railway line. The train was known as La Cochinita (little pig) because it ran over a herd of pigs on its first journey. If you look at the picture of the train that was painted on the rock face, you will find this name there. The train stopped operating in 1960.

    For those who usually only drive over bridges, these tunnel passages are a real experience. Between the tunnels there are wonderful views of the coast and there is a lot to discover. Very well implemented, easy to ride cycle path on a great route, a real highlight and a great experience.

      Walk with good views by the sea following the old train track, now converted into a walk with a bike path.

        You can take a short break between the tunnels and relax. If there are bigger waves it is spectacular to see them break on the rocks.
