Peak 53 m

"After visiting the town of San Juan de Los Terreros, I headed northeast towards Águilas, intending to find a quieter spot for lunch, and what better place than a mountaintop? So I did. At the 78-meter peak, I found a heart-shaped hole in a rock, seemingly natural, through which I could see the sea. The afternoon was rather warm, so I decided to go to another peak, the 53-meter one, located near Cala Carolina. Near the summit, a sparrowhawk hovered motionless on the slope, waiting for its lunch. I spent a while there, observing large blocks of the summit that had fractured and would eventually tumble down the slope. I found it curious that several peaks along this coast have a similar altitude, leading me to believe they may have formed around the same time under very similar conditions." — franciscobirruezo • Feb 1, 2026

"A beautiful route along the northern coast of San Juan de Los Terreros, where the hills, cliffs, and sea meet. I came to this area fleeing the storms hitting my region these days, continuing the route that Belgianibex started a few months ago in this same place. These hills follow the coastline and fortunately retain their natural charm as they haven't been urbanized. You can see motorhomes from different European countries and solitary figures blending in with nature, as well as the occasional surfboard. The order of climbing the hills is the same as in the photos." — franciscobirruezo • Oct 11, 2025

"A quick but rewarding ascent in San Juan de los Terreros led to the two peaks of Cuatro Caves. The path was rocky but manageable, offering stunning coastal views along the way. At the top, standing at 37m and 53m above sea level, the landscape stretched wide, blending sea, cliffs, and sky into a breathtaking panorama. The quiet solitude of the peaks added to the experience, making the effort worthwhile. The descent was easy, leaving behind another small but memorable adventure in this scenic corner of Andalucía." — belgianIbex • May 14, 2025
