We went through the hill of Malaga, and visited, first, EL TORCAL Natural Park covering 17km2 at an altitude of about 1300m. Second, the garden of LA CONCEPCION collects 400 different tropical and subtropical plants. Third, LANJARON is a summer spa town between June and October, which its water is sold throughout Spain popular.


The natural park covers 17km2 at an altitude of about 1300m, and is one of the most
beautiful and extraordinary
limestone ranges in Europe.

Wind and rain erosion has sculptured the rocks into extraordinary shape.
