� DESCRIPTION<br />
From the junction at Puerto del Bujeo, we take the track on<br />
the right which immediately begins an ascent to the mountain<br />
pass of la Higuera, situated in the foothills of the Sierra del<br />
Bujeo. Just before we reach the top, we'll have incomparable<br />
views over the Strait of Gibraltar. In terms of foliage, a<br />
dense cork oak forest will accompany us for the next several<br />
days.<br />
After the mountain pass of la Higuera, our gentle descent runs<br />
across the headwaters of the incredible valleys of the río de la<br />
Miel and the garganta del Capitán, heading toward the Sierra<br />
de la Palma. Then we'll come to the viewpoint of Hoyo de Don<br />
Pedro, where it is well worth the effort to look out over our<br />
surroundings. From here a long descent takes us past the<br />
country house of El Acebuche and then puts us in the plain<br />
called Llano de Botafuego, not far away from the city of<br />
Algeciras.<br />
The final stretch takes us on a road towards the urban centre<br />
