Set off from Marbella and follow the renowned Ronda road into the mountains, one of southern Spain’s most beloved motorcycle routes. As the ascent begins, the scenery transforms into the spectacular Bosque de Cobre — the Copper Forest — a 4,000-hectare stretch of chestnut trees that blanket the entire Genal Valley in rich greens, golds, and coppers depending on the season.

The route continues through sweeping turns and panoramic viewpoints until it reaches Cartajima, a peaceful white village nestled among chestnut-covered hills — the perfect end to a ride filled with nature, adrenaline, and Andalusian charm.
