Stand on the New Bridge and the gorge speaks — a thin wind pushes at your jacket, the river below daring you to lean closer. This 90-minute guided walk threads the dramatic rim where Ronda’s two halves meet: an 18th-century bridge spanning limestone cliffs carved by the Guadalevín and streets that slope toward whitewashed houses and vaulted churches.
