Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory and headland, on Spain’s south coast. It’s dominated by the Rock of Gibraltar, a 426m-high limestone ridge. First settled by the Moors in the Middle Ages and later ruled by Spain, the outpost was ceded to the British in 1713. Layers of fortifications include the remains of a 14th-century Moorish Castle and the 18th century Great Siege Tunnels, which were expanded in WWII.
From a historic perspective it was a worth while visit that being said the Rock national reserve was dirty, poorly marked for trails and points of interest.
We challenged ourselves by hiking the Mediterranean Steps – probably one of the most strenuous hikes we have done since Angles Landing in Zion – great views. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_Step s ) Check it out!
