![]() The stage runs between olive groves, farmland and after passing the El Cañuelo stream, a lush gallery forest that covers the road for a few meters. It first goes along the shady areas of edges of Gordo hill and then climbs the Tardarroba incline, cutting the Sierra de la Camorra hills in two. From the La Espada plains onwards, and after fording the La Venta River, the last third of the trail enters the Sierra de Teba and turns west. It links various public pathways and tracks together, each made up of very different surfaces. It starts off in a southerly direction, but deviates slightly to cross the Morales stream. Olive groves cover the gently sloping hills, crowned by limestone ridges and fairly extensive, but still quite young Holm oak forest. The change of municipal district from Campillos to Teba takes place at kilometre 3.6, in the interesting mixed landscape as mentioned above. The beginning is in a decidedly agro-industrial area, with the main agricultural activities being the production of olives, cereals, pork and poultry. This is a result of the gradual change of the area’s geography from the plains around the city of the lakes to the challenging ridges on which the famous Castillo de la Estrella stands. On few stages can one experience such a broad array of environments in such a short distance. At other moments, it passes through a mosaic of woodland being regenerated and interspersed with farmland. At other times, it negotiates rugged mountain ranges almost untouched by human activity. Stage 1: This particular stage encounters a significant incline through rural landscapes with intense human activity. It joins up again here with the original route of the Great Malaga Path, at the junction of Stages 23 and 24. As you progress, the woodland of Holm and Gall oak and the traditional Dehesa pastureland cover a larger area, until the route enters the hills of the Serranía de Ronda. This consists of a mainly south-westerly direction along a gently sloping corridor between the many small, very rugged but low-lying mountain ranges. It gradually displays the trend that will continue throughout the 60 kilometres of this Alternative Route. ![]() ![]() Variante 249.5 : This Alternative, which splits off from the main route of the Great Malaga Path, sets off from between Stages 18 and 19, to the south of Campillos. Coincidence at the starting point with the end of Stage 18 and the beginning of Stage 19 of the GR 249 Gran Senda de Málaga. We will advance among olive groves in which the road is sometimes confused with entrances to the farmland, although the direction of the march must be in a westerly direction, in the direction of the mountains in which Teba sits.
