This shorter loop heading to the west climbs lovely viewpoint above the whole Costa del Sol, directly above Benalmadena-Fuengirola at any 1000 m.a.s.
Leaving Malaga Center follow streets Marmoles/Martinez Maldonado / Av. de Carlos Haya and then turn left for Universidad (University). Having cycled 400m turn right and follow street Calle Navarro Ledesma and later MA-405/A-7076 to go to Campanillas. In Campanillas stay on A-7054 till Estacion de Cartama.
There turn left direction Cartama and Alhaurin El Grande over roads A-7057 and later from Cartama MA-3304 to Alhaurin. Riding through village take A-387 which leads to Mijas, amazing white village.
At the 1st roundabout go left direction Benalmadena, road A-368, and in 1 km, in sharp turn take left over small road up to top. You have last 5 km to climb, starting on 10% of average until last section where 12-13% is standard. Views and fresh air are impressive there on the top so plan to get a break there.
To return take same road down and on the sharp turn now take left to Benalmadena over A-368. Go through city staying on the same road until you reach Torremolinos and national road N-340. This road takes you back to Malaga, later being named as MA-21 aloud for cycling, but pretty busy. Last part can be ridden along the cost to centre of Malaga.
