Caminito del Rey Private Tour from Málaga: Walk the Sky Highway of El Chorro

The first step onto the Caminito del Rey feels like stepping into a photograph: a narrow wooden path bolted to sheer limestone, the gorge yawning beneath and the river far below daring you to look down. Wind pushes along the gorge and the air tastes of sun-baked rock and pine; griffon vultures wheel with slow, indifferent authority above. For three hours you move along the cliff-face, tracking a route that once served engineers and later became infamous for its precariousness — now rebuilt, rattling only with footsteps and the occasional click of a camera.
