Getting to and Around Malaga’s Mountains

Most mountain areas are best reached by car. Malaga Airport is the ideal starting point – many trails are only 45–90 minutes away.

Car hire for mountain trips

Car Hire: Essential for the Mountains

A car is the only practical way to reach trailheads in Montes de Málaga, Sierra de las Nieves and the Tejeda-Almijara ranges. Many routes are not served by public transport.
