アレナスデルレイの峠・トップ11

Beautiful viewpoint of the mountains

They should fix the road. It's a shame that the Andalusian government doesn't spend a single penny on the roads.

This hike is fun even for teenagers! A great canyon, with numerous small stream crossings, and stunning views. Shoes with treads are highly recommended, and keep in mind: there are two ascents and two descents: down into the canyon, up the mountain, back down into the canyon, and up to the village. Overall, a varied hike.

We really enjoyed the tour up the riverbed and back along the aqueduct. We did the tour on April 2, 2025. You can find the tour dates in my profile. Just enter SPAIN 🇪🇸 in the search bar.

Great area, nice climbs, the asphalt is just not that good in parts.

Steve is correct, however please note it is NOT drinking water! But when the temperatures are as high as they were last Sunday when I did the climb, it's nice to dunk your head in the fountain to cool down!
