ロンダ山脈の天然記念物・トップ20

A hiking trail leads from Ronda to below the bridge.

The Tajo de Ronda is the spectacular gorge that literally splits the heart of Ronda in two. 🌄 • It is approximately 120 meters deep and carved out by the Guadalevín River, which flows right through the city. • Impressive bridges stand above the gorge, the most famous and iconic of which is the Puente Nuevo. This bridge connects the old Moorish city with the newer part of Ronda. • For centuries, the Tajo served as both a natural defense against enemies and a challenge to urban expansion. • From its edges, you have breathtaking views of the Ronda valley, the Serranía mountains, and the white villages in the distance. It is one of the most photographed places in Andalusia and a highlight of Ronda's charm: nature and architecture in a dramatic interplay.

The view of Ronda from the plains is breathtaking and one of the most impressive panoramas in Andalusia. From the flat plain below the city, Ronda appears as a spectacularly situated cluster of whitewashed buildings perched on a high plateau, crisscrossed by the dramatic Tajo de Ronda gorge. Ronda is literally perched on the steep cliffs and seems almost interwoven with the landscape. Particularly striking is the Puente Nuevo (New Bridge), which connects the two parts of the city across the deep gorge. From the valley below, the bridge appears monumental and showcases the engineering skills of the 18th century.
