The Buitreras Canyon is undoubtedly the most beautiful thing to see in the Serranía de Ronda. In fact, the Junta de Andalucía recognized its enormous value by declaring it a natural monument in 2003. Especially since then, this wonder of nature has enjoyed active tourism with a special interest in taking the most popular route to the viewpoint. Below, we'll tell you some of the things you should know if you decide to go hiking through the Buitreras Canyon.

How to get to the Buitreras Canyon

To access this place, you can go to the Gaucín station, although it is possible to take an alternative path. If you decide to follow the Cañada del Real Tesoro, you will have to pass the Guadiaro river dam and walk along a path that will lead you to the spectacular landscapes of the Buitreras Canyon in Gaucín, Málaga.

Advantages of visiting this natural paradise

You could look at photos of the Buitreras Canyon to see its magnificence for yourself, but we recommend you experience it in person to fully benefit from its natural value. Likewise, on a sporting level, many companies take advantage of the terrain's characteristics to offer routes or canyoning along the riverbed itself. However, it is important to refrain from this excursion during flood season to avoid accidents. Best of all, you can enjoy the views and explore the area without needing to be in peak physical shape.

Hotel de las Buitreras

If you are going to spend a few days in the area, the Las Buitreras hotel restaurant is the ideal place to stay. It is a charming place in the middle of the mountains that offers great facilities where you can relax. Come on in!
