The Ikos Golden Mile

Stretching from Ikos Andalusia to the east of the town of Estepona along the Costa del Sol, the Ikos Golden Mile offers a myriad of trails to explore by bike or on foot.

With a limitless array of boutique shops, local cafes, and Spanish fine dining along the way, the journey to Estepona promises an indulgent cultural experience. Families can pause to marvel at the beautiful blue and green coastline, flecked with striking Spanish architecture and extraordinary views of the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and, on a clear day, the northern coast of Africa.
