Once you have passed the tunels you are in the valley of Valle Gran Rey. You pass by several districts: Lomo de Balo, El Retamal, Los Granados, ...

100 m after the place-name sign of the district 'Casa de la Seda' you find to your right-hand sight the one for El Guro, next to a Palm tree. (photo)

This is also the bus stop and you find parking places on the other side of the road.

This is where the stairway begins.
