This medieval trackway is located at the east part of Grazalema, down into the valley along the steep rocks. There are no signposts. The view is breathtaking. Grazalema is one of the 'white villages' of the Sierra de Grazalema.
In this area are many wells and watersources so you feel this area has been inhabited for thousands of years. There are also cave dwellings found in this part of Spain.
