October 2, 2024,🇪🇦 Naturpark Sierras de Tejeda Almijara - Canillas de Albaida <> Competa

Today we headed uphill from Canillas de Albaida in the Sierras de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama Nature Park. The tour repeatedly offered beautiful views towards the coast and later also towards the village of Competa. After a break in Competa, we hiked back to Canillas de Albaida on a flatter section.
