This mainly linear walk starts in Maro and explores the area of the Parque Natural de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama. The route is 11km long, has an elevation of 334m and takes about 4 hours to complete.
The walk starts in the Maro carpark. From here, we walk up to the abandoned quarry with the remains of all the old work vehicles. We then head into the first barranco and follow this passing a stone arch and up to the cortijo at the top of the hill. Here, there are fantastic views of the coast and the surroundings. We then retrace our steps with a diversion off to the right into the second barranco which we follow down to return to the starting point.
