Description
Experience the Caminito del Rey via ferrata in Málaga. Climb, zip line, and cross bridges with a guide. Enjoy a snack and receive GoPro photos and videos.
Begin your adventure with a pickup from your chosen meeting point in Málaga, Nerja, or direclty in El Chorro. Head to the Gaitanes Gorge, where your journey begins. Before you start hiking, get a safety briefing and learn how to make the most of the via ferrata.
Experience the authentic sensation of verticality by climbing up steel steps along walls. Gradually gain height until you reach the super zip line, where you’ll slide for no less than 35 meters towards the other side of the mountain.
Once on the other side, with your adrenaline still pumping, continue climbing and cross two bridges: a Tibetan bridge and a monkey bridge, upon which you will find yourself walking above the void with only emptiness below. But don’t worry, this via ferrata is 100% safe and your guides are experts in risk management.
When you reach the summit, be delighted with jaw-dropping vistas, mainly during the Caminito del Rey section that you will get to know in a unique, fun, and exciting way. The Las Encantadas reservoir and the beautiful scenery that surrounds you will be the perfect match. You will end up using all of your cell phone’s battery taking a ton of pictures to remember.
On the way back, hike for about 40 minutes and thoroughly learn about the flora and fauna of the area, as well as the cave-houses of the climbers who live there. When you get back to the van, enjoy a fantastic picnic with locally produced snacks and be taken back to the meeting point. That same day (or the next day at the latest), receive all the photos and videos that were taken with a GoPro.
