Mountain Bike Trail (MB) in this Area 1st Stage: Villanueva del Rosario - Villanueva del Trabuco

Active Tourism Activities > Mountain Bike

Villanueva del Rosario and Villanueva del Trabuco are two villages in the area which approach The Penibaetic System. These mountains are part of a large range which separates the inland part of Málaga to its coat and are called the Arco Calizo Central Mountain Range  The route we present connects both towns and gets close to the above range, so you can admire scenery like Hondonero or the sources of the rivers in these mountains, which are probably its most precious treasure.
