Hike, trail . My question is about how to say this. I went on / did/ took the ' Caminito del Rey hike/ trail. In Spanish we say : hacer el sendero del Caminito de Rey which is what it's called. It's in Málaga.
How should I put it in English? Thank you

I went hiking on the Camino del Rey. (if you just hiked part of the trail)
I hiked the Camino del Rey. (if you hiked the whole trail from end to end)

In terms of the verb, both ‘hike’ and ‘do’ work.
In terms of the hike, though, you have to be clear.
I did/hiked the Caminito del Rey. (This isn’t well known)
If I heard someone say ‘I hiked the Camino’ or ‘I did the Camino’ I’d assume they’re talking about El Camino Frances. This is known to hikers but not to the general public. Generally you would have to use more words and explain what you mean.

If it is a specific, named hike with a defined route, we can certainly say "we did the ....". For example:
= we did the Milford Track (New Zealand)
= we did the Annapurna Circuit (Nepal)
= we did the West Coast Trail (Canada).
The verb hike could be used interchangeably, We hiked the Appalachian Trail (USA)
However, if there is no specific route, you cannot say 'did'. For instance:
≠ we did the Alps
≠ we did the Rockies.
In this case, it would be better to say we went hiking in the Pyrenees.

Hi Emar.
You can use "hike" or "do" to say that you completed the track.
"I hiked the Camino Del Rey".
"I did the Camino Del Rey".
If you did only one part, you can say:
"I hiked part of the Camino Del Rey" or "I did part of the Camino Del Rey".
The verb "do" is commonly used in an informal manner to talk about our travel experiences, such as safaris, tours, trips or hikes. Here are some more examples:
"We're planning to do Machu Picchu next summer."
"I did a culinary tour in Thailand".
