Peak to Peak and back again on the Costa del Sol Map

Really great views and an eagle show to boot if you arrive by 13hs to the top of the Tivoli Gondola. Don't be deceived by what appears as a short distance, the path is rocky and the both the ascents (and descents) to the peaks are a challenge. But if you want to discover typical flora and fauna of the Mediterranean and incredible views of the sea, city of Málaga, Mijas, Benamaldena, Alhaurin then it just doesn't get better than this. Our nine year (who has experience hiking) was done for by the end but loved it nonetheless...
