This route starts in the picturesque village of Frigiliana. We walk through the town to a track that leads up to El Fuerte which is a mountain with incredible views. The walk is 8km long and takes about 4 hours to complete.
The steep uphill at the start of this walk is the most difficult and after that, it is fairly easy. The summit at 963 metres high has impressive views of the coastline and the mountains further inland. Along the route, we pass by the old mill of Lízar and a water channel built by the Arabs in order to divert some of the water from the Río Higuerón to supply the town and the agricultural terraces.
