FINDEAVENTURA: SIERRA DE LAS NIEVES.
RONDA –MÁLAGA
The “Hiking” and “Via Ferrata” experiences rank high
among our different “End-of-Adventure” tours. Both
take place within the Sierra de las Nieves (Snowy
Mountains), located to the east of Ronda and borde-
ring the Ronda Mountain Range Natural Park. A ho-
tel in Ronda will provide us with the perfect location
to enjoy the food, monuments and cute little streets
in this mountain town.
The first hiking adventure is a level 1 because of the
slopes and distance. The second one, Double Via Fe-
rrata, consists in a level-zero (for beginners) and a
level-1 ascent (easy, with just some trickier parts.)
The first adventure may require the use of crampons
which our company will be providing.
Specific equipment both for groups and individuals is
essential in order to complete the Via Ferrata routes.
It includes a harness, zipper or hard-hats. The guides
will be also equipped with the necessary safety and
rescue equipment.
TORRECILLA ROUTE
At 1,919 metres, our hiking walk leads to the highest
peak within the province of Malaga. It comprises a
difference in heights to up to 1,000 metres and takes
six hours including the breaks along the way.
We cross the “Cañada del Cuervo” with its cente-
nary pine trees to get to the Rock of the Lovers and
from where a flat path will take us to “Los Pilones”
prior to approaching the final ascent. From the hi-
ghest spot, we will get views of the Mediterranean
and Morocco to the south; the Grazalema Mountain
Range to the west; Sierra Nevada to the east and
Ronda to the north. A worthy challenge!

RONDA DOUBLE VIA FERRATA
Offering spectacular scenery of Ronda, “El Tajo” and

ple path which is perfect for those who are starting
to get into this sport.
The second and incredibly picturesque route, “El Mo-
lino”, begins at an abandoned mill and is an easy
one due to its many resting spots from which to take
splendid pictures. Let’s go and fly over El Tajo!
