El Tajo del Aguila
Level Two – February 24. El Tajo del Aguila is a very nice excursion that takes place in the Cadiz town of Aguila.It has a little more than 12 km and 434 of accumulated rise thus qualifying it as a level two or moderate. For this route you will be able to arrive by bus or by private car.
The population of Algar is one that is separated by mundane noise, instead filled with beautiful nature. Although the town exists since the Neolithic period, its domination is Arabic, and it has great monumental richness like the church and the town hall. All of these places listed will be discovered on this excursion.
We will meet together at 11 o’clock at the Plaza de Toros in the town of Algar whose GPS coordinates are 36.658199, -5.654899. You can view the image below.
The journey could be described as a photographic hike as it tries to go through the different viewpoints that peak through the limestone’s visibility to the waters of the Guadalcacin reserve.

The excursion has the difficulty one might expect from a level two course. In addition to the expressed information the excursion is developed by unmarked goat paths that will delight our lovers of hiking adventures.
The tour is lively at all times with docile animals that like to look and greet you as you go along the path.
We will make our first stop in order to eat fruit at one of the viewpoints. And once we are at el Tajo, we will make a stop in order to eat bocadillos (a traditional Spanish sandwich) and/or snacks that you and/or your fellow travelers have brought with you.
The beauty is the final viewpoint from la Loma del Tempul where you can see the rest of the Roman aqueduct and a fantastic panoramic of the mountain range of la Sal and of las Cabras.
