Category: Hill Walk
Meeting Place: Hotel Ciudad de Cine, Coín
Distance: 7 km
Grading: Medium to Heavy
Itinerary:
The walk "las Canteras Azules" starts by taking an upwards path through a pine forest. After a pause at the top of the incline, the trail follows a single file, open, path high around the edge of a deep valley with steep scree slopes on the left (vertigo sufferers beware). There are fine views back to sea near Fuengirola. The path then climbs steeply up to the plateau on top of the hill and from there a wide track winds down back to the starting point.
