Walk to the square ↗︎Open the square in Google Maps ↗︎The map marks the square, not the Desfiladero entrance. Google Maps will ask for a starting point if your location is unavailable.
The Town Council’s announcement of the completed route places it between the area of Plaza de María Auxiliadora and the Padre Jesús neighbourhood, beside the Baños Árabes, the Arab baths. It states that the entrance and exit occupy restored buildings. To start your visit, use the entrance instructions; do not treat the Baños Árabes landmark as your meeting point.
Check your booking for where to report and at what time. If you arrive by car, plan parking and the walk separately. If you are already exploring Ronda, check how to reach the square from your location. Avoid scheduling another activity immediately after your visit without checking its conditions first.
If your booking confirmation says something different or you cannot recognise the path when you arrive, ask the team before continuing along another trail. You can use the contact link below. The practical guide brings together the access conditions and preparation checklist to help you get ready.
