This cache is located near a familiar landmark on the Costa Del Sol. I often come here while visiting Spain as it provides a great view with minimal hiking and makes for a great child friendly cache.

Enjoy!

-----------------

This is the 100km of coastline that begins at Malaga city and stretches westward all the way to the border of Cádiz province. This part of the coast is highly developed in terms of both property and infrastructure and it attracts an important percentage of Spain's international tourism. Communications revolve around Malaga International Airport (8 km west of the city) and the N340 backbone coast highway. In the middle of the Costa the greatly improved district road from San Pedro de Alcantara inland to the historic town of Ronda is the most important inland connection.

Small note on cache maintenance: I have family that live less than 1km from the cache who I introduced to geocaching not too long ago. I will also be in Spain several times a year.

Walked to this cache from the bus stop in the centre of town (long walk but well worth it). Excellent panoramic views from the bull. Spent a while looking for it but found it after looking further than the coordinates told me to go. Cache has great potential but needs a bit of sprucing up.

Off to Timmy's bar for fish, chips and mushy peas.

Knowing that we would reach the cold Germany tonight, geo_tom and I could better bear the way up to the cache Wink. The box was found easily. Thank you very much!

With the road construction, one way roads, etc. it was difficult to get here. Then after a short but hot hot hot walk we quickly reached the bull. You can really view far here, even though I prefer the view from the other bull signs that we've seen... ;-)

Ensin lähestyimme toroa rannalta päin. Piti ottaa etsintä uusiksi ja illalla kävelimme Los Pacosista Torreblankan mäkien kautta toron luokse. Pienen etsinnän jälkeen kätkö löytyikin. Upeat maisemat yli Fuengirolan. TFTC.

Too hot for me but I found it! came by foot from the roads. Quite a climping in a suny day. Almost lost the box but just as I thought to leave there it was. Thanks!
