Big strenuous circular hike across Playa Antequera<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

From Igueste, I have already described the hike along the ridge path<\/a>. This hike to Playa Antequera is identical to the small but challenging loop at the beginning and end. But overall, this hike to Playa Antequera beach is bigger and more strenuous. You have to climb up and down twice. You can see this very clearly in the altitude profile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, the last section before Playa Antequera is a breezy walk on a small path above the cliff. You need to be sure-footed and free from vertigo. A little scrambling is also part of the hike here. I would describe this section in particular as very difficult for normal hikers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Playa Antequera compensates for the effort<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

But when you reach Playa Antequera after some scrambling, you are rewarded with a lonely sandy beach. Here you are far away from the world and share the beach only with a few other hikers and sailors. There are also a few abandoned buildings in front of the rock that faces the bay. I have not yet been able to find out whether they served as accommodation for fishermen or for some other purpose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
