Setenil: Setenil is a village constructed
in a strange claustrophobic location. On the banks of the river
Guadalporcun as it winds through a narrow gorge. The village houses
are perched on rocks, built into rocks, hanging from rocks and incrusted
into rocks. It is therefore full of delightful corners, in particular
Cobrerizas and Carbonarías streets where the houses truly
blend together.

human settlement had to be stablished.

along its length, the Camino del Rey is now in grave disrepair.
