January 3, 2024,Sendero "Río Majaceite"

Hi Komootler, I hiked this tour based on Udo&Ulrike's recommendation. There was a lot to see and every meter was worth it. I also took my time and searched intensively for otters. In any case, I found traces. And another little highlight. But look for yourself, almost all photos are commented. Many thanks to Udo & Ulrike.

October 31, 2025,Wandeling El Bosque en sendero Rio Majaceite

From Zahara, we visited El Bosque. It's a charming village without many sights. However, the surrounding area is all the more beautiful. We hiked the Sendero Rio Majaceite.
It's a beautiful trail with some steep climbs and stunning rock formations, but certainly not difficult. For large parts, you walk right next to the river with its many rapids and waterfalls. …

February 9, 2023,Gran cascada – Kleiner Wasserfall Rondje vanuit Benamahoma

Ideally, start in El Bosque and keep left along the Rio Majaceite. The path is ascending and sometimes slippery so more passable than descending. Make a bend at the end via the Jardin Botanica path to return .

June 22, 2025,Houten pad – Benamahoma Honda waterval rondtocht vanuit Prado del Rey

We walked this route in June 2025. Temperature around 35 degrees.
A very nice route. Almost completely in the shade. Lovely at high temperatures. Do take plenty of water and possibly a few sandwiches. . At the start and the end you can relax and enjoy the terrace at the restaurant.
