The Benalauría vía ferrata

This is one of the most beautiful trails in mountain range and it surprises us with its change in direction along the route and as we negotiate its various solid walls called Tajo de las Palomas.

It is situated in the Tajo de los Aviones in a spectacular rocky enclave. It is an amazing trail, and as we ascend we discover the narrow valley hidden in the middle of the above mentioned solid walls. Here we find two short hanging bridges but at a considerable height. The views or the Valle del Genal are incredible. A short distance away we have the Ferrata de Benadalid. This area is full of trails to climb allowing us to combine a number of them to make the full day worthwhile.
