It is in this environment where, since the 19th and 20th centuries, a set of the railway and hydroelectric infrastructures were located that formed the backbone of the connections and the road network that has survived into the 21st century and has become the El Caminito del Rey walkway. Declared by the Junta de Andalucía as a Natural Area in 1989, it had already been classified as a Special Protection Area for Birds in 1987 and, since 2006, it is part of the Andalusia-Morocco Intercontinental Biosphere Reserve of the Mediterranean. The site has been added to the list of Places of Community Importance in the Mediterranean Biogeographic Region. This natural enclave has been a focus of influence for the settlement and development of human groups in the surroundings of the natural area of Gaitanejo and El Chorro from prehistoric times to the present day, documented by the abundance of archaeological sites.

Wow what a fantastic day at the Camino Del Ray! Absolute perfection with exact pickup times, expert guide through the gorge and knowledgeable guide on the coach on our journey to the gorge. Will definitely use this company again, thanks for a wonderful day.

Fantastic walk. I was disappointed that a portion of the walk was closed due to high winds. We plan to do the walk again some day.
