Los Cahorros is one of Andalusia's most popular and spectacular hikes — a trail that winds through a dramatic river gorge with several suspension bridges over the rushing water. It's not a long hike, but it offers plenty of "wow" moments along the way.
The route starts at the village of Monachil, just outside Granada, and typically takes 2–3 hours round trip depending on pace. It pairs well with a Granada day trip, if you've got the energy for it after the Alhambra.
