TICKETS to walk Spain’s world-famous Caminito del Rey between March 24 and June 28, 2026 – including the all-important Easter Week – went on sale at 9.30am this morning (December 4), and nearly 125,000 are up for grabs.
Cristóbal Ortega, the provincial authority’s deputy chief, warned that demand is ‘through the roof’ all year round. No kidding – a whopping 68% of tickets were snapped up within just 12 hours last time they went on sale.
Since its dramatic makeover a decade ago, the once-infamous ‘world’s scariest walkway’ has transformed into a bucket-list landmark for hikers and adrenaline junkies alike, drawing three million visitors to its cliff-hugging paths.
It’s about get even more jaw dropping: Work has already started on a new 100-metre suspension span, which will give visitors a more heart-pounding look at the gorge below.
Over half of the visitors are from outside Spain, and another quarter come from elsewhere in Spain. Andalucians living outside Malaga make up 6 percent of the remaining visitors, while locals in Malaga account for 14 percent.
Tickets cost €10 for general entry and €18 with a guided tour, all available exclusively via caminitodelrey.info. Bookings are limited to 10 tickets. There are also strict rules that apply. No children under the age of eight can be brought, and anyone younger than 18 must be accompanied with an adult.
