Ruta del Turon: Puente de Molina y Castillo de Turon

Reviewed By teslrichardson

We were a group of 10 people hiking from the white washed town of Ardales along the Sendero "Los Jiménez-Fuente Garzón" to the Castillo de Turon. We began at an old Roman Bridge, the Puente de Molina, over the Turón River where we spotted some wagtails and egrets quenching their thirst. Soon the trail took us past flourishing olive groves, laden with juicy olives. We had hoped o see almond trees, and we weren't disappointed. Many were bursting with pretty pink flowers, while others were overburdened with almonds which we were happy to gather up and nibble on. The landscape as we ascended to the ruins was breathtaking - it overlooked the Chorro Dam on the Guadalhorce River, the Turon River, the Ardales valley and the road to El Burgo. Once we ascended to the Castle it was clear that it had seen better days as only sparse ruins remain. But the 360 views from the summit were amazing and a perfect spot for lunch and a doze under the warm sunlight. The trail we used to descend was rocky and unstable so I'd advise caution but it added to the exhilaration of the whole outing. We were lucky enough to have a local botanist in our group who was able to point out many local herbs and flowers. Overall the hike is quite easy but there is gradual elevation with a couple of short steep spots. Depending on where you descend, poles could come in handy. Our hike ended back in Ardales where there are not many bars are open on Sunday but we were able to get some flavourful tea at Bar El Melizo in Plaza El Isidro.

Teatro Romano

Reviewed By MikaelF413 - Vantaa, Finland

This surprising Roman theater can be found at the foot of the Alcazaba fortress. It was built in the first century BC, under Emperor Augustus, and was used until the third century AD. After that, it was left to ruin for centuries, until the Moors settled in Andalucia. The stones were used to build the Alcazaba fortress. The theater was rediscovered in 1951. In 2011 after a long reconstruction, it was reopened to the public.

Banos Arabes

Reviewed By andyandjo9 - Surrey, United Kingdom

Really interesting to go to historical Arab (rather than roman) baths. There is a short video alternating every 7 minutes between Spanish and English which gives a good overview of the baths and helps to understand the function of the various rooms ... recommend you start with the video. We arrived at 11ish and there was parking down by the baths which saved a walk in current extreme heat
