This natural area located along the coastline has a total length of about 12 kilometres, offering beautiful views of the cliffs and its isolated beaches.
If you decide to explore these routes during the warmer months, we recommend bringing goggles to enjoy not only the scenery above sea level but also the underwater flora and fauna, including orange coral populations and other endangered species.
This short excursion of about 3 kilometres will take you along a path that includes the remains of a watchtower, which was once responsible for the defence of the coast.
If you drive along the N-340 highway (along the coast), you will find an exit just after passing the town of Maro. Take this exit and park your car to start the journey.
Following the path along the top, you will reach a lookout with views of the villages of Maro and Nerja. Continuing to ascend, you will arrive at the Torre de Maro.
Following the path to the next summit, you can spot an abandoned house. Finally, you will arrive at a small cove where you can cool off after the hike and enjoy the underwater scenery.
Taking the exit of the N-340 road signposted 'El Cañuelo' and after parking the car, this route starts at the border between Granada and Malaga.
You will see two paths, one fenced to prevent vehicle passage; this is the one you will take, descending until you reach a curve, which you leave to enter a wooded area.
Always oriented towards the beach, continue until you reach a small meadow where you can take a break and take some pictures.
Following the same direction, the road will begin to disappear, and a descent with a little more difficulty starts. You will come to a creek that you have to follow until the beach, where you can continue to enjoy the underwater flora and fauna.
Following the National Road N-340 along the coast, take the exit that indicates 'Cerro Gordo', just past the exit of Cantarrijan.
After arriving at a restaurant where you can park your car, start your path ascending to the beacon tower where there is a viewpoint to enjoy the view. Proceed with the descent down the trail path until you reach a fork. Follow the path that continues descending until a forest path, which you take to the left, leading to the beach Calaiza.
