Grade 3: This grade is ideal for those who enjoy a variation in walking levels from easy to moderate. You’ll be walking mainly on good paths at a low altitude, with occasional more demanding ascents and descents. Walking regularly in preparation prior to the tour is recommended due to 5 to 9 miles of walking in the space of 2.5 to 4 hours per day.

Huelvas Mining area

Follow the River Guadiana from Casa Cañaveral to Sanlúcar de Guadiana, walking along historic mining paths and Roman causeways.
