Itinerary description
Gaucín Ayuntamiento Ruta VII - Un buen paseo para conocer las ventajas de caminar por Gaucín, ya que el paseo disfruta de vistas en todas las direcciones y no se aleja mucho del pueblo. Hay una larga subida de regreso al pueblo hacia el final de la ruta.
La ruta pasa por el sitio de la batalla donde Pérez de Guzmán, más conocido como Guzmán el Bueno, murió el 17 de septiembre de 1309 durante el asedio del Castillo del Águila, que se encontraba en poder de los musulmanes. Gaucín se conquisto definitivamente en 1457.
Gaucín Town Hall Route VII - Walk No.7 from Patrick Elvin's excellent book "Walks around Gaucín" where it is called " Around the village below the castle". A good walk to introduce you to the delights of walking around Gaucin, as the walk enjoys views in all directions and does not stray far from the village. There is a long climb back up to the village towards the end of the walk.
The route passes the battle site where Pérez de Guzmán, better known as Guzmán el Bueno, died on September 17, 1309 during the siege of the Castillo del Águila, which was held by the Muslims. Gaucín was finally conquered in 1457.

We walked this trail in late April when there were a lot of wild flowers. Beautiful scenery and clear and easy directions.
