Hiking

There are plenty of parking spaces at the Boquete viewpoint, as it is the starting point for fabulous hiking trails. The tourist train also ends here, a replica of the old rack railway that linked Malaga with Zafarraya between 1922 and 1959. The train was also known as "La Cochinita" because of its slowness. On his way from Málaga to Ventas de Zafarraya, he stopped at El Palo, La Araña, La Cala del Moral, Rincón de la Victoria, Torre de Benagalbón, Chilches, Benajarafe, Valle-Niza, Almayate, Torre del Mar, Vélez-Málaga, El Trapiche, Viñuela, Matanza and Periana.
