Route Albuñuelas-Los Callejones: the starting point of this route is the high square of Albuñuelas, which is a fabulous viewpoint over the rest of the Lecrín Valley. Los Callejones de Albuñuelas is a rocky gorge carved out by the river as it passes through the town. Along this path, as well as walking along the river bed, there will be moments of climbing, so the difficulty of the route is moderate. This path offers us the opportunity to discover a great diversity of flora intertwined with cultivated fields where orange trees, almond trees, vines and avocado trees are the real protagonists.
