Located in the Montes de Málaga, this restaurant is an ideal stop for cyclists exploring the region's mountain trails. The restaurant exudes a rustic, traditional atmosphere, with old tools, jerrycans, and platters evoking the area's agricultural past. The menu features hearty, typical regional dishes such as migas (a type of sausage), Plato de los Montes (a regional specialty), and meat and game dishes—perfect for refueling after a strenuous climb. From the terrace and windows, there are sweeping views of the surrounding mountains and valleys, making the break particularly worthwhile. Venta Galwey is therefore not only a place for good food but also for relaxation and enjoying the scenery during a cycling tour through the Montes de Málaga.

The ascent to Puerto del León follows a winding, paved road characterized by a consistently steep gradient, particularly noticeable in the switchbacks. The route leads through the foothills of the Montes de Málaga, past wooded slopes, scattered olive groves, and small fields. Upon reaching the upper sections, a view opens up to the mountainous landscape of the Axarquía region, with its gentle mountain ranges and deep valleys. The road itself snakes through the mountains, with the gradient frequently alternating between moderate and challenging, demanding both stamina and pedaling technique. The route, combined with the altitude, offers an intense experience of nature and riding.

The mural honoring "Verdiales and Paco Maroto" by Lalone in Benagalbón is a large-scale graffiti piece on the facade of the local folklore center. The mural pays tribute to the Verdiales, a traditional music and dance form from Málaga, and honors the important musician Paco Maroto. Lalone, a well-known street artist from Málaga, combined a realistic portrait with colorful floral elements that highlight the vibrant character of the local folklore. The work, measuring over one hundred square meters, was created using more than one hundred spray cans and was commissioned by the Rincón de la Victoria town hall. The mural aims to strengthen the cultural identity of the region and was completed in time for the traditional Verdiales competition in Benagalbón.

The Torre Vigía de El Cantal is a 14th-century Moorish coastal watchtower that was part of a defense system against pirates. It stands on a rocky outcrop about thirty meters above the sea. The tower is approximately eight to ten meters high, built of stone and limestone, and was used for signaling with smoke and fire. After the Reconquista, it lost its military significance but remained as a landmark. Today, it is protected as a cultural monument ("Bien de Interés Cultural") and offers a breathtaking view of the coast.

The Paseo Virgen del Carmen in Rincón de la Victoria is a particularly picturesque stretch of the seafront promenade, extending along the rocky coast to the cliffs of El Cantal. The path offers magnificent views of the Mediterranean Sea, and at its end, a small chapel is nestled into the rocks. This section of the Paseo Virgen del Carmen thus impressively combines nature, faith, and art – ideal for a peaceful moment by the sea, especially at sunset when the rocks and the sea are bathed in golden light.

A restaurant that has gained a lot of fame over the years BUT its original owners have transferred it, the food is not the same (I don't mean it's bad).

They are spectacular...
