🥾 Caminito del Rey: Spain’s “King’s Path”—A Scenic Stroll Between Malaga and Seville Nestled between Malaga (1 hour by car) and Seville (under 2 hours), Caminito del Rey is a hikers’ favorite—though “hike” feels too intense.

With 20,000+ Google reviews, it’s a hit with locals and travelers alike—just plan ahead to secure your spot. 📍 Getting There: The Logistics Drive: Head to the Caminito del Rey reception center (plug this into your GPS). Parking costs just €2—easy and affordable. Shuttle Bus: From the center, take the free shuttle to the trail’s access point. Pro tip: It’s not the actual start! Walk 200m back the way the bus came, through a tunnel, then another 1km—you’ll know you’re there when the path opens up to views. 🎫 Tickets: Book Early (or Brace for a Tour) This spot gets busy, even in December (we learned the hard way: tickets sold out the day before).
