Trekking in Tarifa
How to find your ideal Trekking in Tarifa...

With such a unique positioning, the intersection of two continents and two seas with such different characteristics it is not hard to understand why the territory is so particular and different to its surrounding territories to say the least. The local microclimate, mild throughout the year, the ever blowing winds, which reach incredible forces at times, have shaped the landscape for good.

 

The location is most known for its beaches but the landscape is ideal for rambles and walks. It may miss the extreme heights of the Alps but this climate makes it an authentic walkers paradise. The trails are not plentiful despite having vast un spoilt natural territory, however the arid scarce vegetation makes cross county feasible most times. Local organisations with guides and organised trails are available. In April 2006 5-7 day rambles from Algeciras - Tarifa to Ronda will be organised. Open for inexperienced walkers to more demanding trekkers, with 476 hours treks a day.

Andalucia is mostly dry and hot, just ask people living in Algeciras a mere 20km away. Tarifa however, also thanks to its mountain ranges facing the Ocean, often causes cloud formation and frequent precipitation. It could be sunny at the beach and raining in the mountains and still be in Tarifa. Having said this I do not want to hide the chronic water shortage problem Tarifa shares with the rest of southern Spain but that Tarifa could be considered luckier than most of its neighbors. The ever growing population, specially the demographic explosion it endures each summer makes a considerate use of water vital.

Nevertheless to stay on a brighter tone these conditions leave the territory and its views breathtaking. Find out about the national park its natural habitat and animal life, and all the activities which may be carried out.

The marine currents are powerful and flow in and out of the Mediterranean. This enhances the interchange of living organisms, enriching both the fauna and the vegetation of the Cadiz waters. The same currents which differ in both temperature, salt contents, and hence the diversity of the sea beds off the coast, increases the variety of habitats and increase the number of its cetaceans and other fish.
Its geographic position, the coast around the Straits, is a convergence zone of different migration routes, both of terrestrial and aerial. This, of course, applies to its marine life too, where abundant different fishes and cetaceans move seasonally from one sea to the other to spawn.

Trips are organised from Tarifa to see whales and other cetaceans all year round.

The bird life is very active in this area, not only for the birds who have nested in this area, I was quite taken back to see vultures, something I have only related to dark Africa, but it is also one of the most popular navigation points for all birds migrating between Europe and Africa.

As for sport activities related to the air, with out going into kitesurfing is hang-gliding.
