Ronda Trip Overview
This route makes a circuit to the west of Ronda, passing through rural countryside and through two small, sleepy white villages. It is an off-road version of our Leisure e-bike ride: Cueva del Gato & Montejaque, which means less road and more tracks and paths.
From Ronda we head down into the valley directly below the town, for great views up to the main Puente Nuevo bridge. We climb out of the valley and then drop down again to the Guadiaro river, where we make a short stop at the Cueva del Gato, “Cat Cave”. This is a local beauty spot, with a small waterfall and beautiful pool of crystal clear (but very cold!) water. We climb steadily up into the mountains, through the village of Benaojan and on to Montejaque, where we usually make a quick coffee stop on the village square We continue down through farmland into the valley of La Indiana before using trails which head up through pine-forested hills to climb back to Ronda.
