Directions to Villanueva de Rosario from Malaga Airport
Overview: Malaga airport is slightly south west of the city - Initially on exiting the airport complex follow signs toward Malaga (E15/A7), aiming to join the main E15/A7 motorway heading north east. Once on the motorway follow signs for Antequera and Granada (and initially Motril) before heading due north on the A45 motorway.
he airport terminal is accessed by one main road (Av del Comandante García Morato) and on this road immediately before the terminal buildings there is a largish roundabout. If you are coming from the airport then there will be a large brewery building ahead and to the right of the roundabout. This roundabout is the starting point for the detailed directions below.
The first few steps may vary depending on where your hire car is parked or the car hire company is situated. There are some car hire companies on site at the airport, but there a lot that are situated on the main airport access road that operate a shuttle service between the airport and their base.
he following table gives directions from Malaga airport to our houseand there is some more information at the Rock Climbing Company site.
