The Caminito del Rey trail is a popular tourist attraction in Malaga, Andalusia. It was once dubbed the world's most dangerous walkway and attracts adrenaline junkies and daring hikers from around the world.

Visiting this high-up adventure requires some planning. Here are a few practical tips to help you get the most out of your visit!

Guided Tours

If you want to get the most out of your visit to Caminito del Rey, book a guided tour. These are a great option as they are led by local guides who speak both English and Spanish.

These tours are a great way to learn about the history of Caminito del Rey, as well as learn about some of the local culture and customs. They also include transport to and from Caminito del Rey.

You can also book a private tour for just you and your group. These are a great way to get a group of friends together and experience this incredible walk in a fun and safe environment.

The pathway dangling up to 100 metres in the air is an awe-inspiring sight and is surrounded by a breathtaking landscape of mountains, canyons, valleys and dams. This is a unique and unforgettable experience that you will never forget.

Parking

Caminito del Rey is a popular attraction in Andalusia. The trail is accessible via a shuttle bus from several parking areas.

The North Access Parking (El Kiosko Parking) is the most convenient, as it’s closest to the start of the trail and is also where you will take the shuttle bus when you’re finished. You can park there for 2 EUR per day, which includes your ticket and the shuttle bus.

Another option is parking in the Visitors’ Reception Centre Parking (2 euros/day). This parking area is a bit further from the start of the trail but it’s still within walking distance from the starting point and is easier to find.

Visiting Caminito del Rey is advisable for people of all ages and fitness levels, but it is best to be fit and prepared. The walkways are completely safe and there’s no need to worry about falling, as they’re surrounded by high handrails that minimise the risk of vertigo.

Accessibility

If you're planning to visit Caminito del Rey, it's important to know how accessible it is. Even though the walkways have been recently restored, they're still high and narrow – so be sure to wear good shoes, and don't forget your camera!

If visiting with children, they must be at least 8 years old to get in. They can also join a guided group, but it's important to remember that there is a waiting time for this if you go on a normal day.

To make your visit to El Caminito del Rey as safe as possible, the government of Andalusia built new walkways above the original – and they're completely safe for anyone aged 8 or over. They're flanked at all times by high protective handrails, so you can walk with confidence – and you'll be glad to know that they are also free of vertigo!

Safety

Once dubbed the 'world's most dangerous hike', the Caminito del Rey is now completely safe, following an extensive renovation project in 2015. Before the walk was renovated in 2015, the path had been riddled with fatal accidents.

Back in 1999 and 2000, five thrill-seekers died while attempting to walk the Caminito del Rey. Despite these deaths, the walkway remained popular and was still used by people from around the world.

However, these days the walk is safe and a must-do attraction for anyone who's interested in trekking in Andalusia. With a sturdy boardwalk and a high safety rail, the walk is now safer than ever before!

The route is made up of walkways suspended 100 metres above the Guadalhorce river in three gorges. It's a unique experience that can be done on your own or as part of a guided tour.
