THINGS TO DO

Hiking, mountain biking, climbing, caving, it's all up for grabs in the high Genal. The villages are linked by marked and numbered trails, following the old mule paths, drovers roads, and smugglers' byways. Bikers can also navigate most of these, as well as the numerous dirt roads that criss-cross the valley. For walkers a superb array of excursions are available from our doorstep. A stunning 5 hour walk to Ronda with breathtaking views of Africa, or leisurely ambles to neighbouring villages through resplendent valleys. Guided walks utilising old secret muleteer paths are also available.Don't forget your climbing legs, things can get a bit steep! Anyone enjoying dark dank holes can choose from a wealth of caves and canyons, and climbers can have a decent stretch up on the cliffs of LosRiscos or take a drive to the gorge of El Chorro.

If all that sounds a bit much like work, a spot of bird-watching or painting might be up your street. Catch a sight of the majestic Spanish Imperial Eagle or revered Egyptian Vulture riding the thermals above, whilst capturing sightings of Hoopoe, Thekla's Lark and Firecrest below. We also thoroughly recommend an afternoon on a local wine binge, guides available.
Please contact us for more information on  routes, maps, etc. We can also arrange accomodation in other villages if you would like to walk a loop of the Alto Genal,  the whole valley, or even into the Sierra de las Nieves or Sierra Grazalema.
