Explore the wonderful Maro-Cerro Gordo Nature Area. Enjoy this experience, highly prized by hikers for its incredible views of the Mediterranean, as you venture into the area's lush vegetation. Our meeting point for the hike will be in La Herradura. From there, we will begin the excursion, and in just a 10-minute walk, we will be immersed in the tranquility offered by this natural area.
Hike along hidden trails to reach secluded spots where you can enjoy paradisiacal views.
Explore two of the area's most popular coves, Cantarrijan and Cala del Cañuelo, where you can take a dip and snorkel in the crystal-clear waters.
The views from the Cerro Gordo lookout point, located next to the watchtower, are truly unique. At the highest point of the hike, we will be able to take in the vastness of the Mediterranean, and on days with good visibility, we may even see the Moroccan coast.
The Maro-Cerro Gordo Nature Area is one of the places with the highest population of mountain goats in the area, and you are 100% guaranteed to see them on all our hikes, in addition to all the other fauna and flora found here.
This activity is suitable at any time of the year, but it is highly recommended during the months from October to May.
