콤페타‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

1959년에 다섯 명의 소년들이 발견한 것이 놀랍습니다. 더 안쪽으로 더 깊이 들어간 후에 얼마 지나지 않아 큰 홀이 발견되었습니다. 18유로의 입장료로 매우 인상적인 동굴을 볼 수 있습니다. 또한 오디오 가이드도 제공되지만, 일부 사람들은 그것을 제대로 사용하는 방법을 이해하지 못합니다. 그들은 동굴 안에서 휴대폰을 큰 소리로 틀어놓고 돌아다닙니다.

In front of this small sacred monument called the "Cruz de Pinto Shrine," the following thoughts from Pope Francis – who died on Easter Monday 2025 – may be helpful to those who linger on the summit after the ascent: + "In the Resurrection of Christ, each of our destinies finds its place in the infinite horizon of eternity. Only from his death and resurrection does the certainty arise that nothing will be able to separate us from the love of God [as the Apostle Paul writes in his Letter to the Romans, chapter 8]. From this great hope comes every other glimmer of light with which we can overcome life's trials and obstacles. And not only that: the Risen One also walks with us and becomes our companion, as with the disciples on the road to Emmaus."

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.

In March 2025 there was a lot of water flowing, a trip is then only possible with suitable water shoes. We did not have that and returned.

The caves were discovered by chance in 1959 by a group of five young people and are now one of the most famous sights in the region. The Cuevas de Nerja are a perfect combination of natural wonders and cultural history and are one of the most important attractions in Andalusia. For a special experience, we recommend a guided tour, which also offers deeper insights into the lesser-known areas of the caves.

The riverbed of the Rio Higueron, which dries up in summer, is a wonderful place to walk in summer. It is shaded in long sections by huge oleander bushes, which are particularly beautiful when they are in bloom. In the Frigiliana area, there is a large difference in height of around 10 m. There is a staircase there, but it is not immediately visible, so keep your eyes open.

The new suspension bridge is the highlight of this hike. You should not be afraid of heights, but the bridge is very stable and sways very little. But the path there from Canillas de Aceituno is also just beautiful and relatively flat.
