David Gonzalez Escobar

Guide

David is a native of Antequera and spent much of his childhood roaming the local mountains from his base in the family “casita” in the Sierra De El Torcal.  He has hiked extensively in almost all of the mountain ranges of Andalucia and has also trekked in the Pyrenees, the Alps, the Atlas & Rift mountains of North Africa and in the Andes mountains of South America.

David´s lifelong love of the mountains and nature led him to study geography at university in Granada and to qualify as a fitness instructor and guide.  As well as being an expert on geology, David has an incredible knowledge of the local flora and fauna (including a sometimes disturbing amount of detail on how to eat/serve much of it!).

David leads on hikes and bike rides, as well as offering kayaking and rock climbing sessions for those with enough time (and energy!) to spare.
