Promoter: Mancomunitat Comarcal Els Ports

Certification status: Conditioned quality control

0 reviews

Following the inspection carried out by trail technicians, this trail has been declared of "limited adequacy" as a result of the faults detected in the signage. These include inadequate horizontal signs (paint markers) and/or vertical ones (trailheads and information boards) or lacking direction markers that do not provide sufficient information to properly follow the route. The builder of this trail has been informed of the situation.
For safety reasons and during maintenance work, it is advised to be extremely careful while taking this route. Furthermore, mountain sports entail risks associated with the activity itself and the environment where they take place, for which any person is fully liable. For this reason, hikes need to be planned properly and adequate training, equipment and sensible use of the trails are required.

The itinerary descends towards the Cantavieja River valley among traditional terraced fields and dry-stone walls, passing along the way by old constructions such as the Guillermo Tower, the Royo Mill, and the Chapel of Sant Marc, as well as various ethnographic elements.
