About this guide

The Caminito del Rey Guide is an independent guide to visiting the Caminito del Rey in the Gaitanes gorge, in Málaga province, Spain: the tickets, the guided tours, the day trips and the practical side of the walk. We are not the official Caminito del Rey website, we do not sell official tickets, and we are not a tour operator, the Diputación de Málaga or GetYourGuide. The official ticket site is caminitodelrey.info.

Facts here are checked against the official Caminito del Rey website and its rules, press releases of the Diputación de Málaga as reported by regional media, Renfe and Adif for trains, and the operators' own listings on GetYourGuide. Rules, timetables and meeting points change; when a listing or the official site and this page disagree, they win.

The site is funded by affiliate commissions: when you book through a GetYourGuide link here, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That never changes what we recommend, including telling you when the plain entry ticket is all you need and who should skip the walk. Details on the affiliate disclosure page.
