Alternative Routes to Ronda as A-397 Remains Closed Due to Storm Damage

Due to severe damage caused by Storm JANA, the A-397 road between Ronda and San Pedro Alcántara remains completely closed to traffic. The closure affects the section between the Benahavís junction and the Igualeja road (MA-7304), making it impossible to travel directly between Ronda and the Costa del Sol via this route.

IMPORTANT: The time estimated to repair the road and bridge is at least 4 months and probably 6 months. (though there is talk of opening just one lane within a couple of months to allow some restricted access to Ronda from the Costa del Sol.) So, we could be looking as far ahead as September 2025 before the road as actually repaired.

If you’re planning to travel to Ronda, here are the best alternative routes to reach the town safely:

The Parador de Ronda is the most popular hotel and most reserved by Ronda Today website visitors. This is not just because it offers the same exceptional service as other Parador hotels, but because it is so centrally located, offering everything the experienced traveller demands.

Its location immediately adjacent to the Tajo gorge and Ronda’s iconic Puente Nuevo, is the reason this hotel is often fully booked.
