NEW ROUTE: Sierra del Jobo - Pico Chamizo

THIS IS NOT AN ORDINARY EXCURSION, BUT A NEW, EXPLORER ROUTE

The ‘Explorer’ routes are new hiking routes that we do for the first time, I have the route in my hiking GPS, hiking maps and/or hiking descriptions, i.e. all the necessary information to be able to do this route. But unlike all the other hikes I offer, I have not yet done these hikes myself. So it may be that this route is a bit longer than indicated, or that we can't do a part of it, that it is rocky, thorny or muddy, etc. In any case it requires a bit of adventurous spirit, safety and a good physical condition is a prerequisite.

Beautiful circular route with wonderful views, to the highest peak of the Sierra del Jobo and the Perdigones pass. Not very long, but with a slightly steep climb and rocky path along the ridge

From the Tajo de la Madera, near Villanueva del Rosario, Malaga, we climb the Chamizo Peak (1,641 m). The ascent follows a somewhat steep path, passing the Alto de Hondonero viewpoint, towards the summit. The views are spectacular, we can see as far as Mahoma, the highest peak in the province of Malaga. After a well-deserved rest, we continue our way to the Puerto de los Perdigones, along the ridge, to return to our starting point. It is a somewhat difficult route, but through beautiful and magical scenery.
