The nature reserve by our finca is called Desfiladero de los Gaitones and has an area of 2. 016 hectares situated between the municipalities of Ardales, Antequera og Alora. The area is characterized by it's many funny and fascinating stone structures which have evolved through thousands of years by water and wind.
A dramatic and lovely tourist attraction is La Garganta del Chorro; a 3 kilometre long and 400 meter high gorge, which connect the three lakes; Embalse de Gaitanejo, Embalse del Conde de Guadalhorce og Embalse del Guadalteba-guadalhorce by the river Guadlahorce that runs to the coast of Málaga.

The area's flora is a true pleasure for everyone. Lots of aromatic pine, eucalyptus, olive, oak tree, cactus and cypres. Smaller vegetation as rosemary, thyme, vild roses and different flowers make small bushes upto 40 cm high. No matter the time of the year the nature is always covered in the most beautiful colors and the air is fresh and clean.

The beautiful lakes and the amazing mountains is just outside the door of your holiday apartment.

Kayaks and waterbikes are rented out at 3 different places by the lakes. Here you also find different picnic places where you can enjoy yourselves for a hole day.

Paragliding points are only 1, 5 km. from the finca and the mountains behind gives you some of the best climbing or rappelling challenges in Spain.

As well as endless kilometers of hiking, running and mountain bike routes.

The small white villages nearby offers both idyllic village life and the perfect scenery for going sightseeing. But no sightseeing is completed before you have experienced the local food and their beverages.

In the country side you will find lots of signs which says "Ventas" it does not mean that the place is for sale (as well "venta") but it means a tavern or a pub and it is a very popular restaurant especially among the Spanish people.

El Arpa is located in El Chorro, Antequera, Málaga, Andalucia, Southern Spain.

Only 45 minuts easy drive from Malaga's international airport Pablo Picasso. With plenty of good flight connections from UK using British Airways, Easyjet, Ryanair or Air Berlin just to mention some of them.

We do recommend the use of a car during your stay, but it is possible to use the train and a taxi to get to the finca.

The drive to El Arpa is very easy, at our homepage you will find the link with our dirrections from Malaga Airport.
