The Elephant Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

Depending on where you look at this stone formation, it actually looks like an elephant. With a little luck, a goat will sit on it.

January 21, 2024, Las Catedrales del Torcal – Paraje Natural El Torcal

A great tour. It's easy to do. Recommendation to start from the bottom. The parking lot above is crowded on Sundays. It was very very muddy and very slippery. Clean shoes and dry socks in the car are great.

You can hike through one of Europe's wildest karst landscapes near Antequera, and with a bit of luck, you might even spot a golden eagle. We started our tour at the very bottom of the first parking lot; the visitor center was packed with tour buses. We had planned a much longer hike, but here you have to constantly watch your step; it's rare that you can walk briskly. Besides, there are endless views of the wildest rocky landscapes to marvel at. The 11 kilometers were enough for today.

Definitely imitate! Impressive natural panorama 😊

Unfortunately the recording paused in the middle. That's why there's a straight line that I basically flew 😂

An impressive hike with these rock formations. We recommend parking below.

A really nice tour. Sturdy shoes with stable soles required. Do the tour during the week and start from below, then you can also be lucky enough to see the ibexes.

https://www.relive.cc/view/vQvy2pZGg4O Today we didn't feel like cycling, nor did we have legs. 🤣 That's why I just checked komoot to see if there wasn't some nice hike nearby that was worthwhile and could also be done for people with knee problems 😬🤣 said done: Today we did it Torcal de Antequera National Park seen here above. That was really nice. 🥰The pictures speak for themselves.🤩 My knees held out to some extent 😬🙈 as I write in the video at the end: where there is a will, the knee also comes through.🤷🏻‍♀️🤣👍😁
