Itinerary description
Category: Hill Walk
Meeting Place: Near the roundabout of the A-387, the MA-3303 and the A-7053, in Alhaurín el Grande
Distance: 7 km
Grading: Medium
Itinerary:
This is a circular walk on the north side of the Sierra de Mijas, mostly in the shade. It starts near the water deposit / castle on the outskirts of Alhaurín el Grande.
A passage along undulating ground is followed by a climb up a dry riverbed. Most of the walk follows paths surrounded by trees so the silence of this forest track makes this walk particularly pleasant. When reaching the gap in the woods for the fire break there will be a suitable pause before completing the walk.
At times the path is rather uneven with loose rocks, so walking sticks are recommended.
Directions to the Meeting Place
From Mijas
Take the A-387 towards Alhaurín el Grande. Shortly after the Alhaurín Golf Urbanisation, and just before the roundabout "Puerto de los Pescadores", with the BP garage and Venta Los Morenos, there is a KM 3 sign. On the right there is some waste land where it is possible to park. This is the meeting place.

Good walk easy to follow directions we couldn’t complete the walk because of fire damage would do it again, when the lumberjacks have finished filling the trees.
