About 30 hikers from the Almuñécar, municipal walking club enjoyed a good stomp between Ítrabo and Lobres on Sunday the 21st.

Mind you, what should have been great views were no views at all, thanks to all the dust in the atmosphere, blown across the Med from North Africa, having the effect of mist.

Then again, thanks to the touch of rainfall recently, the countryside was boisterous with colour and green in general, remarked Enrique Garín, the walk guide.

During the descent to the Rambla de Ítrabo, the participants took in la Cueva del Capitán and the tunnel through which the irrigation channels pass.

Next slog is on the 6th and will take in part of the Camino del Pescao, between Granada and Almuñécar. If you want to participate, enquire at the municipal sports stadium.
