Punta Lara Alta

The first walk of the New Year. The idea was to ease ourselves back into the swing of things. A gentle warm up before starting back at the Gym. It was also an opportunity for Monica to do a little site survey and look up some of the Villas she will be renting out for 2011.


The view to Torrox.

It was a short walk, lasting less than two hours. However there was one slight problem. The "Alta" in Punta Lara is no joke. It is seriously steep going up the track. It would be a struggle in a car never mind by foot.


Monica scouts a potential building plot.

Punta Lara has quite a few things going for it. The most obvious being the views. Spectacular mountain views and of course the coast.


Punta Lara Alta certainly has great views.

The further up the track you go, the more exclusive the villas. The road isn't the greatest in the world. However, its worth the effort for what you get.


Private Villas not too far out in the Campo.

Having a villa up here means that a car is a must. The trade-off for the peace and quiet of this location is that you are not within walking distance of the town centre. But then again, you are not in the middle of nowhere. It's only a 15 minutes drive away from Nerja.
