Seville private tour and day trip to the Caminito Del Rey
The Caminito Del Rey (King's little pathway) in El Chorro is undoubtedly one of the most thrilling walking tours you will ever embark on. After being closed to the public for 15 years, it has reopened following an extensive 5 million Euro restoration project. Recently featured in Lonely Planet's list of top new travel experiences, this pathway was once notorious as one of the world’s most perilous hikes—however, that is no longer the case. The King's little pathway in El Chorro is now safely accessible to everyone. The true allure of the Caminito Del Rey remains intact, offering stunning views and an incredible sense of the natural beauty found in the impressive rock walls, breathtakingly high walking ledges, and the awe-inspiring hanging bridge that will leave a lasting impression.
For those seeking an unforgettable experience combined with spectacular scenery, this adventure is perfect for you. During your free time, you can savor lunch at one of the local restaurants (not included) and take a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters of the nearby lakes.
Please note that this tour requires participants to walk for approximately 3 hours, have no fear of heights, and not experience claustrophobia, as we will pass through a tunnel at the start of the tour.

The Caminito Del Rey is nestled within the stunning Gorge Desfiladero de Los Gaitanes, where in some sections, it measures just 10 meters in width and plunges 700 meters deep. Translating to ‘The King’s Little Pathway,’ the Caminito Del Rey was originally constructed to serve as a walkway, allowing access to various reservoirs that supplied water for a hydroelectric plant. Its name stems from its inauguration by King Alfonso XIII.
Initially, the walkway was quite perilous, held up by metal rods driven into the gorge's walls. Over the last century, it fell into neglect and began to deteriorate, leading to an extremely hazardous path that resulted in numerous fatalities, prompting its closure. Despite this, many adventurous souls continued to attempt to navigate or climb it.
Fortunately, a few years ago, the walkway was fully restored and secured, transforming it into one of the most breathtaking walks in the world.
