ENJOY THE SPECTACULAR COASTAL WALK OF EL CANTAL!..
This relaxing walk through El Cantal connects the town of La Cala del Moral with Rincón de la Victoria via a labyrinth-like pedestrian path, offering some of the best views of the Mediterranean and the Bay of Málaga. There are quite a few stairs involved in this route, though if you have reduced mobility or want to cycle there is a flat, level pedestrian path that runs through three tunnels. These once served part of the train journey to Vélez-Málaga and Zafarraya, and are now a tourist attraction in Rincón de la Victoria.
