Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in El Chorro?
The best area to stay in El Chorro is near the Caminito del Rey access points, particularly around the village of El Chorro itself or Álora for slightly more options.

The village of El Chorro is small and primarily serves as a base for those visiting the Caminito del Rey. It's located in a valley, surrounded by dramatic rock formations and the turquoise waters of the Guadalhorce lakes. You'll find a few local eateries and accommodations, and it offers direct access to the starting points of the Caminito del Rey via shuttle or a short walk.

For couples seeking a blend of adventure and relaxation, staying in El Chorro village or a nearby rural hotel is ideal. You'll be right on the doorstep of the Caminito del Rey, allowing for an early start to avoid crowds. Many accommodations in this area offer beautiful views of the natural park, great for enjoying a quiet evening after a day of exploring.

Families will find Álora to be a practical choice. It's a larger town, about a 20-minute drive from El Chorro, offering more amenities like supermarkets, pharmacies, and a wider selection of restaurants. There are also more family-friendly accommodation options, including larger holiday homes.
When is the best time to go to El Chorro?
The best time to go to El Chorro is during the spring (March to May) or autumn (September to November) when the weather is most pleasant for outdoor activities.

During these months, you'll find comfortable temperatures for hiking, climbing, and exploring the natural beauty of the area. The days are generally sunny without being excessively hot, making it ideal for walking the Caminito del Rey or enjoying the lakeside. Both spring and autumn also see fewer crowds than the peak summer months, allowing for a more relaxed experience.

For those keen on climbing, the cooler, drier conditions of autumn are particularly favourable. The rock faces are less slippery, and the temperatures are great for sustained activity. You'll find the climbing sectors around the gorge are bustling but not overcrowded, offering a good community feel.

If your primary goal is to enjoy the lakes for swimming or paddle boarding, the end of spring into early summer (May to June) offers warmer water temperatures while still avoiding the intense heat and larger crowds of July and August.
