Recently, the tourism portal Toprural<\/a><\/strong> reported that the Sierra de Grazalema<\/strong><\/a> (Cadiz, Andalucia) was designated as one of the three most popular rural destinations by travellers<\/strong> in 2013. Why? The combination of lush nature, the view of white villages, exquisite local cuisine and a host of sports activity combine to make this a truly unique Cadiz destination a treasure by tourists from around the world.<\/p>\n

One of the high points of the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park,<\/strong> a Unesco World Heritage site,<\/strong> is hiking, either freely or with a guide. Today we have provided an original and fun activity that was proposed by the Visitor Centre Cortes de la Frontera under the title: ‘A Moment of Walking and Another By Train<\/a>\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This route, which is for all ages, begins at the visitor centre where guides are on hand to provide an introduction about the characteristics about the natural environment. Then, hikers will move to Benaoj\u00e1n,<\/strong> a small village in the Malaga Ronda Mountains in the Grazalema Natural Park, known for hosting the famous caves known as La Pileta, el Gato and La Hundidero.<\/strong><\/p>\n

From there, the walk will carry on about four hours on the Gaudiaro River path, which runs along the Ca\u00f1ada Real del Campo de Gibraltar, which once connected Jimera L\u00edbar and Benaoj\u00e1n.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the foot of the Sierra de L\u00edbar<\/strong> and parallel to the river, this 7km path will offer magnificent views of the Guadiaro Valley,<\/strong> dotted with olive trees, poplars, elms and willows. The gentle sounds and clear waters of the river will accompany visitors along the tour, which runs along the lines of the Algeciras-Bobadilla railway, built in the nineteenth century.<\/p>\n

This same train line will be what takes hikers back to the starting point, offering them a new perspective on the local landscape through the train window.<\/p>\n
