Tour overview

This 8-day walking holiday explores the hills and white villages of inland Andalucía from a converted farmhouse reserved for the group. A tour leader guides the walks, for a group of six to fifteen. You stay seven nights at Cortijo Rosario near Algamitas, with a pool, breakfast daily and most lunches and dinners.

Gentle walks lead from the cortijo to Villanueva de San Juan, then a private bus takes you high into the Sierra de Grazalema. You walk to the monastery of Caños Santos and the cliff-hung white village of Setenil.

After a free day in Seville, you walk the dramatic Caminito del Rey through the El Chorro gorge and finish with a circuit around El Peñón, the great rock above Algamitas.
