피자라 최고의 라이딩 경로

과달호르체 협곡을 통과하는 보람 있는 하이킹

엘 푸에르토 데 라스 아베하스는 말라가 산맥에 숨겨져 있지만 현지인들에게는 고전적인 코스입니다. Vuelta 2026이 이를 코스에 포함시켰습니다.

오르막길은 느껴지고 체력이 필요하지만, 그 노력은 멋진 풍경을 감상하는 것으로 보상받습니다.

The Mirador is a worthwhile destination for a bike tour in the Guadalhorce Valley. The viewpoint is located above the river and offers a sweeping view of the surrounding olive and citrus groves.

The Arab castle of Álora, also known as Castillo de Álora, sits atop Cerro de las Torres overlooking the town and is one of the most important historical structures in the region. The fortress, in its present form, dates back to the Moorish rule of the Middle Ages, although the site had been used and fortified in earlier periods. Due to its strategic location, the castle controlled the Guadalhorce Valley and served both military and administrative purposes. It was captured by Christian troops in 1484 during the Reconquista. Remaining are sections of the imposing curtain walls, square towers, and a horseshoe-arched gate, typical of Islamic military architecture. Within the complex are also remnants of later Christian buildings, including a chapel built over a former mosque. The castle has been a listed building (Bien de Interés Cultural) since 1931 and offers a wide view over Álora and the Guadalhorce valley from its elevated position.

The Mirador Alí Ben Falcún “Al Baezi” viewpoint lies below Álorá Castle on the castle hill and offers a sweeping view of the town, the Guadalhorce Valley, and the surrounding landscape. The path to the top is steep and requires some effort, but the climb is more than worth it. The view compensates for the strenuous ascent with an impressive panorama that vividly illustrates Álorá's unique location between the river valley and the mountains. The viewpoint is named after Alí Ben Falcún, a figure from the Moorish era, thus commemorating the town's long Islamic history. Today, the Mirador is a cherished viewpoint that combines historical significance with scenic beauty, inviting a moment of quiet reflection.

The view from the south reveals Álora with its striking castle hill at its center. The remains of Álora Castle are clearly visible on the hilltop, underscoring the town's strategic location overlooking the Guadalhorce Valley. The town itself, with its whitewashed houses, stretches along the slope below, surrounded by arid hills, olive groves, and the fertile plain of the river valley. The view perfectly illustrates the typical landscape and settlement pattern of this region of Andalusia. Why not take a short break, soak in the beautiful scenery, and capture the perspective?

You can cycle right up to the viewpoint, it's worth it! ;)
