It was only 2 kms from our campsite but the approach was all up hill, so we took the car 😉
We don’t mind cycling but the roads in this area are way too steep for ‘us amateurs’ and we only have high praise for the many that we saw in this area. The roads were of Vuelta España standard! Continue reading Güejar Sierra→
One of the places we had wanted to visit was the cathedral town of Gaudix. We had passed it last year whilst near Granada but the weather had not been conducive at the time. With the temperatures in the 20’s and the sun shining, now was our opportunity. In hindsight we would recommend visiting the town between a stop to or from Granada.
From our campsite in Güejar Sierra it meant either a journey circumnavigating Granada, which pushed up the mileage or cutting cross country up spectacular narrow windy roads to the main A-92 to Gaudix. (The roller-coaster route which we took whilst towing the caravan to the campsite).
Our campsite El Sur is situated on the outskirts of the town of Ronda, surrounded by beautiful views of the landscape, National Parks and the Serranía de Ronda, in the heart of the Malaga Province. It is one of the most peaceful and picturesque areas of Spain to visit, in our humble opinion.
From our campsite we headed north around Ronda and headed off on the A-374 signposted to Seville. The main roads in this area are wonderful and offer spectacular views.
