TORCAL DE ANTEQUERA is a rock park of 1171 hectares. It consists of a beautiful and striking series of limestone forms, known as Torcas (hence the name of the site), which were carved out of the rocks by erosion about 200 million years ago. For hikers, three routes have been marked out in the park. The green route is the shortest and easiest, 1.5 km, and takes about 30 minutes. The yellow route is 2.5 km long and takes you to "Las Ventanillas," at 1,200 m, for a panoramic view of the valley of Malaga. Finally, the red route is the longest and most difficult, 4.5 km, taking about three hours, with a viewpoint at 1,339 m where you can see the entire Torcal park and the coastline of Africa. The red route can only be walked with a guide due to the protection of fauna and flora. You need good hiking or sports shoes, and in the warm months, take a bottle of water with you.
