Jardines de Cuenca, Ronda

Address: C. Escolleras, 1, 29400 Ronda, Málaga

If you’re hunting for Ronda’s most underrated viewpoint, Jardines de Cuenca is where to go. Clinging to the cliffs opposite the Puente Nuevo, these terraced gardens snake along the edge of the gorge, offering layered views of El Tajo and the hanging houses that define the town’s drama. It’s quiet, romantic, and totally photogenic.

Named after Ronda’s sister city, Cuenca, the gardens are a peaceful escape just steps from the buzz of the historic center. Stroll through winding paths, breathe in the wildflowers and rosemary, and take in the scene from multiple levels—each terrace gives you a slightly different angle of Ronda’s raw, natural beauty.
