At weekends and on public holidays\, the barbecue areas and picnic tables at the start of our route fill up. We\, however\, are h eading deeper into this beautiful forest. Parts of our route also take us through cork oak woodland\; we are on the edge of the ‘Los Alcornocales’ n ature reserve. From the highest point of our walk\, the ‘Cerro del Águila’ (Eagle’s Hill)\, we can see Gibraltar and\, across the strait\, as far as Africa.\nOn the way back\, we drive along a small country road following the Stork Route\, where multi-storey stork nests can be seen on almost eve ry single lamppost along the road. In a small village on the way home\, we can stop off and enjoy a cool drink and some tapas in the village square. \n\n\n\nDifficulty\n \;easy/medium - 9\,1 km - aprox. 3 hours\nElevati ons\n↑↓123m\nPlease bring\nWalking shoes\, sun / rain protection\, drinkin g water.\nPick up times\nMarbella: 9:00Estepona 9:30\nEstimated return\n16 :00\nPrice: 65€\nIncluded\nGuide\, insurance\, transport to the starting p oint and back\nNot included\nFood and drinks\nPrevious registration necess ary\n\n\n \;\n\n \; DTSTART:20261222T195900Z DTEND:20261222T195900Z GEO:00;0 LOCATION: ORGANIZER: SEQUENCE:1 SUMMARY:Pinar del Rey and The Storks route TRANSP:OPAQUE URL:https://www.sur-walks.com/agenda-dayhikes/532-pinar-del-rey-en/2026-12- 22-19-59?layout=vcal END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
