The impressive El Chorro Gorge.Cut through the vast limestone cliffs over millennia by the Guadalhorce River, La Garganta El Chorro asas known in Spanish, is stunning and well worth driving through at the very least. Famous for its concrete catwalk, which hangs precariously along its length, the Camino del Rey is now in grave disrepair.
