This hike starts in Albuñuelas, a charming village in the Lecrín Valley. The route follows the Saleres River, also called the Holy River, offering a refreshing walk with beautiful river scenery and lush vegetation along the way.
While the hike is not very difficult, there are some adventurous sections. You’ll need to climb a rock using ropes and handholds, and other parts require climbing or descending over rocks. If you suffer from vertigo, certain spots might feel a bit scary. Shoes that can get wet but still protect your feet and ankles are essential, as in some areas the water can reach waist level.
This route is not suitable for dogs that cannot be carried, and walkers should always exercise caution when walking in the river. The combination of river paths, rocks, and small climbs makes this a thrilling and refreshing hike in the Lecrín Valley.
