New Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge separates the old town from the newer part of the city, El Mercadillo, which emerged after the Spanish conquest. The abyss of more than 80 meters is spanned by the Puente Nuevo, which dates from the end of the 18th century. From the Plaza María Auxiliadora, there is an unpaved path that descends to the viewpoint, from where you can get the famous view of Ronda with the Puente Nuevo.

View from Ronda's city walls

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great views over the beautiful landscapes and surroundings of Ronda.
But actually this Highlight is about the: The walls of the city of Ronda.
One of the reasons Ronda is so important in the history of Andalusia is directly related to how secure the city was, a position that allowed Ronda to develop and be independent. The city walls combined with the gorge and the Guadalevín River made Ronda immune to attack.

La Merced Church (Ronda)

Highlight • Religious Site

This church, located in the historic center of Ronda, is from the 16th century and is famous for keeping the incorrupt hand of Saint Teresa of Jesus, a 17th-century reliquary. It is said that when exhuming her remains, Father Jerónimo Gracián cut off her hand and handed it over to the Order of the Discalced Carmelites. After many trips between Spain and Portugal, it finally fell into the hands of the nuns of the Ronda convent in the 19th century. The reliquary, in the shape of a hand, is made of silver inlaid with precious stones.

A most famous place where you can admire a gorge with steep rocks is in the middle of the city of Ronda. Here the Guadalevin River runs through the El Tajo Gorge. The gorge separates two parts of the city, Mercadillo on one side and La Ciudad on the other.

We don't know where to look first and decide to take a hike through the valley of the mills, the 2.5-hour hiking trail 'Ronda-Molinos del Tajo,' to see Ronda from the valley as well. From there we get the famous view of the Puente Nuevo and then a fertile plain with vegetable and fruit crops and many panoramic views opens …

Today, with the best weather, again to Ronda. It started at the foot of the "Puente Nuevo", wanted to walk up the slope on footpaths, always keeping an eye on the bridge. Unfortunately, as so often on my trip, all paths were closed due to construction work, so it was only possible to cross the street 😒.
Once at the …

Unfortunately, you can't attach the scent here: among other things, wonderfully of orange and 🍋🍋 trees.
And the Camino de la Albacara had been freshly concreted and was not passable (footprints in Andalusia have already been left by Rilke and Hemingway, among others 🙃), so there was a detour with 👀 of the Puente Nuevo again from the old town …

Change of location with a stopover in Ronda. In 2016 we were already here. The location of the place right on the steep slope is impressive, the round down the valley can be done twice without any problems.

Today we visited the pretty town of Ronda.
In order to stretch our feet a little again 👣, we didn't just "work through" the sights, but walked around this already very impressive high plateau again.
We didn't meet anyone a little further away from the city...but the journey was definitely worth it.
Back in the center there was something delicious …

The hike starts in Ronda, where we first stop at a hotel where the writer Rilke spent some time (or something like that... whatever, the fresh juice was delicious 😋). Oh dear, I'm such a philistine 🙈.
After that, we first went down the mountain and then hiked back up to Ronda with a great view 🥵
Of course, we …
