Tourist attraction Scenic spot Observation deck

👍👍 View over Gibraltar and the Mediterranean. Higher elevation on the right side as you are driving towards Cadiz or Gibraltar gets you the better view compared to the spot on the opposite side. But some hiking trails allow one to get higher on that side if well equipped. People often mention Gibraltar, view, Rock, Nice,

    Great view, worth stopping to see

    Best viewpoint for the Rock of Gibraltar. There is one on each side of the A385 highway, so you can't miss it ;) (my favorite is the one going up from La Linea de la Concepción) Usually very clean and well-maintained.

    Great view of Gibraltar. Quite empty.

    A perfect spot to see the Rock of Gibraltar.

    You can have a great view of the Rock but sadly you can not access the property right next to it, which is way higher.

    Nice view towards Gibraltar, unfortunately full of trash.

    Nice place, but a little abandoned.

  • 2/5 Ben B. 2 years ago on Google
    Nothing special about this place, poorly maintained, bins overflowing with trash and generally unkempt. Okay for a photo with Gibraltar in the background but that's about it.

    I higly recommend to everyone who is planning a tourist visit to Gibraltar to stop at this place. It offers an excelent view of the Gibraltar Rock. Unfortunatelly, there is no infrastracture provided, but parking place is very large. It is very convenient to get off and back on the highway towards Gibraltar.

    Nice view over Gibraltar shame about the large amount of rubbish on the floor, only spent 5 minutes.

    Nice place to stop for a break with great views towards Gibraltar and Africa. No facilities bar picnic tables.

    Best spot to see the Rock and the city lighting up in the evening. You can find it off the highway and there is plenty of parking space. If you have a caravan, this would be an excellent place to stay for the night.

    This spot gives you one of the nicest views on The Rock - Gibraltar. There is a small parking lot (free of charge). Not much else there: no restrooms, no restaurant. If you walk 50 up the road you get a nice view of typical Andalusia country side (hilly forests). And there are usually quite a few nice donkeys on the medow - nice attraction for kids. Why did I give only 3 stars? Really only a short stop for the view. And unfortunately, the parking lot is often rather dirty (over full garbage bins).
