"LA CINTA TO ARBOLEAS - A very pleasant walk. It's mostly flat, with some gentle climbs in the first half and some lovely views of the Andalusian countryside. As you reach Arboleas, via the rambla, you walk through what I can only describe as a patch of wetland, with real grass growing, and a strange site indeed in this part of Spain! The bars in Arboleas offer welcome 'half-time' refreshment, before you tackle the second half of the walk. Leaving Arboleas, over the smaller bridge, there is a gentle climb up to the old railway line path, and then a flat walk along the path, before you drop into the rambla for the final stretch, back into La Cinta. I'm a novice walker, and this was the longest distance I've tried, so I was grateful that the second half of this walk was flat. I would describe the first half as medium difficulty and the second half as easy. "
