LINEAR HIKING »

GR7 Tarifa to Ronda - Andalucia
Max. Altitude 850 metres
February 10-17 November 9-16 Grade 2
£635pp Half Board
Transfer Malaga

Fast becoming our Andalucian favourite with repeat walkers every year. Beginning at the ancient port of Tarifa on the Straits of Gibraltar , this linear route bears silent witness to the trade that has passed between Africa and Europe for millennia. The route links a chain of Moorish influenced villages from south to north before quickly delving into some of Europe’s last wilderness.

We hike through Nature Parks Los Alcornocales (cork oak woodland) and Sierra de Grazalema (craggy limestone ridges). The ever changing landscape provides a wonderfully varied backdrop to our daily itienarary. This is the best ways to encounter laid back rural Andalucia, whilst discovering the modern pressures of a rapidly changing society.

The stunningly perched historic town of Ronda provides an unforgettable end to a sublime route. A classic walk in the making and exclusive to Frontier.

Package includes, 6 days guided walking, luggage transfers, HB accommodation with wine inc. At a variety of small village inns and hotels en route. Free airport transfers.

GRADING

The altitude at which walks take place will be between sea level and 850m. This does not usually present any problems to those who are used to walking regularly.

* Routes are mainly on good paths and track, though from year to year some of these can become somewhat overgrown. The length of the walks varies from 4 to 8 hours and the maximum daily change of altitude will not exceed 500m.

* You should have a good level of fitness and walking boots are essential.

* The walking will be tailored to fit the capability of the whole group, with short stops being a good way to take in and find out more about the varied surroundings.

* Some walks may require a drop off and/or pick up by our backup vehicle which is included in the price of your holiday.
