Tolox
Tolox lies between the rio de los Caballos and the rio de los Horcajos at the end of a side road hanging like a loose thread from the C-344 Málaga-Ronda highway. When they reach the village the two rivers call a truce and combine to form the rio Riachuelo.
The hills here are steep and show no mercy to the unfit in the flame-grilled Andalucían summer, but that should not deter the visitor. The heat determines the pace, and the pace in the white villages of Andalucía should always be slow.
