El Guro

The El Guro hamlet, located on a mountainside about 1,5 miles (2,5 km) from the coast, is a small world apart - the houses are accessible from the road only over two long, steep stairs.

Step 0
At the beginning  the path looks rather harmless: lush palm trees, exotic cacti and some pretty houses scattered over the place.
But then you reach the first steps. Every step is large, large enough for the donkeys to find their way - for a long time the only transport “vehicle” in the area.
Step 25
Even if you can still enjoy the scent of fresh mangos coming from a tree on your right-hand side, your attention has been drawn significantly to your legs.

Step 50
Counting does not really help. The sun burns.

Step 70
One feels the accelerated pulse and wonders why have we chosen this spot for a relaxing holiday.

"Where is the donkey ?!"



Step 80
The first break offering a stunning view into the valley.

Step 100
Overlooking the picturesque houses of the El Guro hamlet,
you cannot help but smile.
 
Slightly out of breath, you have finally arrived at your holiday home.
Being captured by the panoramic view from your terrace, you know now that this is just the right place -
thanks to the stairway, the "Stairway to Heaven".
