Sport with impressive views
If you want to dedicate your next holiday to playing golf, why not do so in a spectacular setting? The wonders of the Costa del Sol are epitomised at Antequera Golf, the perfect place for a getaway with its magnificent course affording exceptional views that won’t fail to take your breath away.
A unique benefit of a golf holiday in Antequera is its proximity to El Torcal, a 20km2 area defined by its karstic landscape. From Sierra Pelada to Cortizo del Navazo Verde, the area is absolutely worth visiting when you’re taking a break from the greens. An opportunity to be at one with nature and bring another dimension to your getaway.
The two trails through this beauty spot will leave you marvelling at the impressive effects water has when it erodes rock. And to top it all off, to the north of Antequera Golf there are over 100 demanding slopes where you can practise your aim with views over the Antequera countryside which is defined by the river Guadalhorce and little lakes and rolling hills.
Hiking in Desfiladero de los Gaitanes
Hiking is a wonderful way to make your golf getaway even better. In addition to the beautiful views over Antequera Golf course, the Costa del Sol is known as a destination with extraordinary landscapes, such as Desfiladero de los Gaitanes and Caminito del Rey (which you need to book in advance).
Extending over three different municipalities, this spectacle of nature offers several kilometres of walkways that will get your adrenaline pumping. Clinging to the sheer rock face, the pathways appear to float over the gorge. We hope you don’t have vertigo! It is known as Caminito del Rey (Path of the King) as it was opened by King Alfonso XIII in 1921.
Safety comes first at Caminito del Rey and the activity is suitable for families and groups. Are you brave enough to walk 2.9km along the gorge with the river over 100m below? This extraordinary scenery and unforgettable activity is one of the most wonderful additions to your golf holiday.
