Perched on top of a mountain, Ronda overlooks El Tajo, a deep gorge that separates the new town, established around the 15th century, from the old town, dating back to the Moorish occupation.

Due to the specificity of the city and the fact that Ronda is perched in the mountains, it is difficult to navigate there with a camper van. The streets are very narrow and, above all, very steep.

Ronda is a Spanish town perched in the Andalusian mountains, which is one of its peculiarities. The town is split in two by the Guadalevin, a river that forced the inhabitants to build bridges to connect the two parts of the town.
