Yunquera

Highlight • Settlement

With less than 3,000 inhabitants, Yunquera is the most populated town in the Sierra de las Nieves region. This town of white houses is nestled in an incredible mountainous setting dotted with terraces with different crops. One of the biggest attractions in the area is the route of the source of the Rio Grande, also known as the "upwelling of Zarzalones".

San Pascual Hydroelectric Power Station

Highlight • Monument

The San Pascual hydroelectric plant is located very close to the source of the Rio Grande. Its function is to take advantage of the force of the water, which falls from a considerable height, to generate electrical energy. You can take advantage of the gardens that surround it to take a break.

View of Tolox

Highlight • Viewpoint

The road jumps over the hills of Cerro de Carrasco and goes down to the town of Tolox, with narrow and steep streets. You have to go through the urban complex going up through the Plaza de la Constitución and Calle Calvario up to the upper part of the farmhouse. On the outskirts there is a crossroads with the indication of the rural hotel Cerro de Hijar, which serves as a reference in the first part of the climb. The path passes the entrance to the accommodation and continues up the main track.
