The 19th-century tree-lined promenade overlooking the gorge, and the most visited park in Ronda.

The Alameda del Tajo was laid out in the early 19th century along the edge of the cliff, and has been the city's drawing room ever since: five parallel walks of Platanus x hispanica ending at balconies over the Guadalevín valley.

The plane trees that give it its name are the second most common species in Ronda's street trees, after the bitter orange. Here they form a continuous canopy that drops the temperature of the walk by several degrees in summer.
