Our adventure starts by taking the train to El Chorro. Arriving at destination we toke the bus to the startpoint were we had our first walk through the forest 2.7km. It's a beautiful path into nature, you have also the possibility to take a shortcut on the other side. After a short break by the lake we waited upon our turn for take off to discover rocks, cliffs and so much more... We had a amazing guide, because of troubles with the clearance of the earstud, radio she guides us like school old fashion way, close together in a circle telling the story of Caminto del Rey WOW 👌While walking and listening you enjoyed the view it's really breathtaking. Even though it's high above ground for someone afraid for hights it's a challenge you can concer 😁 After 7.7km you arrive at the finish with a mind blowing memorie 💚
The information provided by the guide was very interesting . It was confusing where the tour started . As it assumes it’s from the bus ride from the visitor centre. However there is a walk to the starting of the walk
