Teleférico de Benalmádena (Cable Car)

The Teleférico runs from Arroyo de la Miel up to the summit of Monte Calamorro at 769 metres above the sea. The ride takes about fifteen minutes and the view from the top, on a clear day, takes in the whole Costa del Sol from Málaga to Marbella, plus a sliver of the Rif Mountains in Morocco.

At the summit there are short marked paths, a small bird-of-prey show, and a couple of cafés. It is best done in the morning, when the air over the coast is still clear; by mid-afternoon haze often blurs the long view. The cable car is closed in high winds, so check before setting out.
