LA PEÑA - Ventana del Visitante
DATA OF INTEREST
DESCRIPTION
Between the Valdevaqueros and Los Lances inlets, stands the Enmedio mountain range, this path climbs part way up the southernmost slope reaching places and viewpoints where we will have splendid views of the last stretch of the Atlantic coast of the Iberian Peninsula, from Punta Paloma to Tarifa. Beyond this historic city it is even possible to see the outline of the Jebel Musa on the Moroccan coast.
This second section, of just over half a kilometre, takes us through the pine forest to the Peña tower where there is a viewpoint from which we can continue enjoying new and splendid views, while checking our knowledge of the landscape.
The short and easy journey is more than rewarding for the views and the route itself.
