Overview

The Via Ferrata El Chorro – Caminito del Rey is located in the Natural Site of the Gaitanes Gorge, in Alora, Malaga. Surrounded by stunning gorges, it is one of Europe’s most iconic areas for climbing and adventure. No previous experience is needed, only good physical condition and desire to live a unique experience.
