The aim of this blog is simply to record some of the walks that we take in and around Gaucin, Andalucia. The nearby Serrania de Ronda and Parque Natural de los Alcornocales offer wonderfully varied walking terrain from gently rolling hills to rugged mountains and there is a wealth of arquitectural, geological and natural history to discover.

El Hacho, Gaucin, 15 August 2014
At 0830hrs John, Anna, Sam and I met outside the petrol station in Gaucin to climb to the top of El Hacho. It was quite misty and, thankfully, cool. An hour later we were at the summit and enjoying the views which were a little curtailed due to hazy conditions brought about by the levante wind. Still, it was great to be up there and we had superb views of a Griffon Vulture that flew past several times at a distance of no more than 4m - wonderful!

La Umbria, Sunday 03 August 2014
A bonus walking day as it wasn't too hot this morning, especially in the shade of the cork oaks....
