リオ・グアダルマンサでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

The Torre El Velerín is a historic coastal watchtower on the Senda Litoral near Estepona. It was built in the 16th century as part of a coastal defense system designed to protect against pirate attacks. From the tower, movements at sea were observed and warning signals were relayed to neighboring watchtowers. Its distinctive features are its round shape and elevated entrance. Today, the Torre El Velerín is a listed historical monument and a testament to coastal history.

The tower is located in the Velerín neighborhood. Dating from the second half of the 16th century, it has a circular plan and comprises a room with a fireplace and a brick dome, a staircase, and a terrace. Some of these watchtowers in Estepona also feature a 19th-century guardhouse and machicolations pointing to the four cardinal directions.

It is mainly a walking path, where walkers have priority over cyclists. Good to get somewhere on a bike, but dull to ride (max. speed allowed is 10 km/h).

A very long route by bike, walking, or running. Great views, and along the way, there are places to grab a drink or a snack…

It's worth sitting in the stylish greenhouse, tasting beer and enjoying the ambience.

An oasis around the overdevelopment along the coast. The river landscape and vegetation are home to turtles and other fauna, which enjoy the boundary between the sea and the river.

A coastal watchtower from the Muslim era. The historic site and park sits on the edge of the boardwalk and is the only thing stopping the overdevelopment enveloping this area.

The river reaches the Mediterranean. The waters fight against the sand of the beach and bind with the passing of the seasons. The landscape changes during the rainy season.
