Our gathering point will be the Plaza del Profesor Fontboté where we will convene at the scheduled time. Once everyone is assembled, we will board a minibus, setting off toward the Sierra Nevada National Park, approximately a 20-minute ride from the city.

The 6 km (3.5-mile) trail is designed for all fitness levels, making it an ideal choice for families seeking a memorable day amid nature.

As we make our way along the path, expect to encounter a breathtaking natural environment, including numerous suspension bridges that offer spectacular views of the surrounding landscapes.

Indeed, this hiking path through Cahorros de Monachil provides an excellent opportunity to leave the urban rush behind and immerse yourself in the beautiful natural surroundings of the Sierra Nevada range.

Your journey will conclude back at our initial meeting place following a 3-hour experience of nature.

Itinerary Adjustments

This year’s heavy rainfall has resulted in some sections of the trail experiencing damage and small rockfalls. Consequently, a portion of the canyon area is temporarily closed for maintenance and safety reasons.

However, Los Cahorros offers several alternative routes, and we have adjusted our path to ensure you can continue to explore the captivating landscapes characteristic of the original trek. Most of the familiar trail remains accessible, with only a minor section of the canyons currently off-limits, although it can still be appreciated from a different perspective.
