The Pozuelo and Viborilla Route - Mountain, forests and great views
A stunning circular route in the Sierra Blanca of Marbella, with some elevations but a great reward in views over the coast and the mountains, different types of forest, flowers and an old Olive Grove
A gorgeous hike close to Marbella, with stunning views to the Sierra Canucha and Sierra de las Nieves. Our path leads steadily uphill in serpentines, with rosemary, thyme and many flowers along the path.
Once we reach the pass, we follow a pleasant, relatively flat trail, that winds along the ridge, passing a small Pinsapo Forest and continues to a totally different geological scenery, the Viborilla is surprising and very unique shaped rock-formation. From there we walk down to a deep pine forest, an olive grove and a Eucalyptus forest, back to our starting point
