La Maroma, Mountain summit in Sierra de Tejeda, Spain
The summit of La Maroma rises to 2069 meters, marking the highest point in Malaga province within the Sierras of Tejeda, Almijara and Alhama Natural Park.
The mountain earned its name from a rope system once employed by local workers to access an ice storage facility near the peak during past centuries.
The mountain stands as a natural border between Granada and Málaga provinces, forming part of the extensive Penibaetic mountain system in Andalusia.
Three main hiking routes lead to the summit: the 12-kilometer Llanadas de Sedella path, the 15-kilometer El Robledal trail, and the 20-kilometer Canillas de Aceituno route.
From the summit, visitors can observe both the Mediterranean Sea and the North African coastline during clear weather conditions, while wild horses roam near the peak.
