Going to Caminito del Rey by Train
You can go by train! And it is actually very easy. But it is possible just if you have your tickets entrance to Caminito del Rey from 12PM to 14PM.
Where is the catch? There is only one: the departure is at 10AM, it's a 45 mins trip to El Chorro (Caminito del Rey exit) and you must take the train back at 3PM or 6PM, so you will necessarily will wait a few hours, before or after the walk.
