Nice experience. The road to the Area Recreativa is semi-paved, there are bumpy parts of macadam so drive slowly. We parked when the navigation read ‘8 mins drive - 42 mins walking’ and continued on foot, it was a good idea. The mountains are magestic, the area is covered by forests, pine trees and other, so there is much shade, it’s refreshing. The Area itself is large, there is a big parking, some 20+ wooden tables with benches, toilets, and freshwater to load up for the hikes. We still need to explore the paths, I saw two off the main road towards the Mirador, but I’ve read in one of the reviews there are several. Altogether, a very nice trip, even if you feel like taking a short hike, like 2...

Mes recomendado para visitarlo: Febrero.

Cerca del Monumento Natural Los Tajos del Alcázar se conservan las ruinas de una antigua fortificación árabe que da nombre al lugar.

En Pleno Parque Natural de la Sierra de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama, en el término municipal de Alcaucín, a orillas del río del mismo nombre, en plena Axarquía, se encuentra un área de esparcimiento y uso recreativo con instalaciones diversas para facilitarnos el disfrute. Pequeños saltos de agua y abundante vegetación añaden atractivos a este bello rincón, paso obligado en alguna de las rutas que se dirigen al Pico de la Maroma, el más alto de La Axarquía (2.068 m).

Si nos acercamos al mirador habilitado en el camino veremos un poco más abajo cómo se abre una espectacular garganta antes que el río deposite su caudal en el pantano de La Viñuela.

Más información

Ubicada dentro del Parque Natural de la Sierra de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama, en el término municipal de Alcaucín, esta zona tiene un uso recreativo múltiple (para comidas, acampadas, juegos...), disponiendo de una serie de instalaciones (duchas, mesas, hornillos, zonas de juegos, etc.) para uso público.

Este paraje es paso obligado en algunas de las rutas que se dirigen a pie al pico de la Maroma, el más alto de la Axarquía con 2.068 m., con excelentes instalaciones para poder pasar un día de campo.

Se trata de un área recreativa, ubicada en la orilla del río Alcaucín. Las pequeñas cataratas que se forman en los primeros metros del cauce de este arroyo y la espesa vegetación que lo rodea son algunos de los atractivos naturales de este coqueto rincón.

Llama la atención es la impresionante garganta que abre este arroyo metros más abajo, antes de llevar sus aguas hacia el cercano pantano de La Viñuela. La mejor forma de contemplar este cañón natural es acercarse al mirador habilitado junto al camino.

Desde allí se pueden ver las bellas formas que ha creado la erosión sobre las zonas más rocosas tanto del cauce del río como de las zonas montañosas...

A truly breathtaking place. Definitely worth a drive up if you find yourself near Alcaucín and you are OK driving on narrow single-track unpaved roads. We went at a weekend in July and there was hardly anyone there, even at the Rio restaurant. Lots of beautiful flora and fauna to see, and a couple of achievable trails for younger kids. Loads of picnic tables. Toilets limited but present. WARNING : the play area at the top car park is decrepit. Parents must check the condition before allowing...

Brilliant area of outstanding natural beauty. Head up and out the back of the buildings and up the path to over 1280 meters and enjoy the stunning views. We also spotted a few Ibex. To say its deserted and nothing much open here......well I don't know what you wanted....a Starbucks? 😁

Tres bel endroit pour se balader dans un havre de paix et de ressourcement. Acces aisee mais un peu aventure pour touristes pas habituer au sentier en voiture. Mais il faut rouler sans crainte car meme avec vehicule normal c est accesible. Parking sous arbres, ideal en été. Differentes promenades possibles. Bon conseille, n oublié pas d emporter de l eau. La flore est magnifique, mais ne vous attendez pas a rencontrer des animaux. Appareil photo et jumelles sont bien venus pour ce genre de ballade. Magnifique vue en perspective. Bonne promenade. 😎👍
