    A canyon with a bit of water and steepsided rock face. Probably not really doing it justice but that's my view. Dont go if you don't like heights (any height); can get exceptionally busy with group tours; about a 2K walk down from the entrance to collect your hardhat (compulsory), tickets brought in advance and a 3K+ walk to the south exit after the bridge. The walk itself is between 3-7k if you do the extra bits into the National Park. If you are not expecting this seriously lengthy uphill steps at the end (I wasn't) - it is not good for knees then the long walk to the car/coach point - this did my ankles in; avoid the trail. Whilst the walk on the trail was nice it was marred by this bit out of the canyon.

    It was breathtaking and our tour guide was lovely but we did ask for an English speaking tour guide and he was Spanish and quite difficult to understand. It was also extortionate!

    What a beautiful and amazing place. Our guide, Juanma, did a nice job of pointing out all the features and telling us the history of the area. However, it was windy and hard to hear what he was saying throughout the tour, even though it was just the two of us. I will say that it was hot and the path at the end is not easy - about eight flights of steps and uphill to the shuttle bus. DO NOT wear anything but good walking shoes. It is approximately five miles - start to finish. You will be turned away if you wear flip flops. Bring water and a snack. The tour was great but, if we had to do it again, we’d pay the fee to get into the park and walk on our own.

    The Caminito del rey tour was fantastic. Olga was friendly and so knowledgeable - she let us go at our pace and gave us the history and showed us nuances we might have missed on our own. It's definitely worth seeing and experiencing.
