Cantarriján: Cerro Gordo - Cañuelo

Sunday 11th of February 2024 11:00 AM

If anyone prefers a shorter walk, you can meet up with us as we pass the Cantarriján beach probably around 11:45 - 12:00. 

On this circular coastal walk, we walk from Cerro Gordo to Playa Cantarriján and Playa Cañuelo and then back. This route is 9km long, has an elevation of 351m and takes about 4 hours to complete.

LONG DESCRIPTION
The route starts at the Mirador Restaurant near Cerro Gordo, where there is plenty of space to park. We walk down the old road to Playa Cantarriján, past the chringuito, through the car park, and across the river. We then zig-zag our way up to the top of the hill. It is important to take a the path to the right correctly. It is marked by stones across the path. There is some scrambling over rocks and this is where the more unfit people will struggle slightly but it doesn't  go on for long.  There are fantastic views of the bays below.  We then walk down to Playa Cañuelo, where we normally eat our sandwiches. Remember not to take the short cut to the beach behind the bar. Just go down the road. The final part of the walk is quite a strenuous uphill slog (you just have to take it at your own pace) back to the Mirador Cerro Gordo. What out for bicycles going fast on the asphalt road at the top. If you are lucky you might see some wild goats.  On the way down from the high point we pass a shrine to Ermita San Judas Tadeo or Saint Jude. He is the patron saint of desperate cases and lost causes. He should not be confused with Judas Iscariot who was known for his betrayal of Jesus.
