Route description (only available in Spanish)

En el límite provincial con Teruel, cerca de la aldea de La Monzona, el GR nos conduce hasta Los Cantos. Ascendemos hasta la parte alta de esta pequeña población. Desde un portal de una vivienda, accedemos, junto al PR-CV 126, a un sendero que cruza el barranco.

El sendero continúa hacia el pinar y comienza a ascender. Cruza un cortafuegos y, más adelante, inicia el descenso por un escarpe que pasa junto a la fuente del Almajal y desciende entre campos abancalados. Tomamos la carretera a la derecha, pero a los pocos metros, tomamos una senda a la izquierda que nos lleva hasta la entrada de la población de Puebla de Arenoso, por la calle Santa Bárbara.
