GR 331 E14 LA LLÁCUA - ARES DEL MAESTRAT

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 topography of Els Ports made it essential to build bridle paths to connect farmhouses, towns, and access various natural resources for utilization. Some of these paths were expanded for livestock transit, and others were newly created, receiving the name 'azagadores.' Many of them are still in use today.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Desde la aldea de la Llàcua, pedanía de Morella, la etapa se inicia por carretera del camino de la Llàcua. Pasamos por la Cruz y más adelante, en un cruce, el recorrido gira a la derecha hasta enlazar con el GR 7 para girar al sur y pasar por la balsa de la Pinella. Cruzamos la carretera y seguimos junto al GR 7 que ya no dejaremos hasta el final de la etapa.

A continuación, se alcanza el camino junto al barranco dels Prats, que cruzamos para tomar una senda que asciende por el bosque de carrascas en dirección al mas de Miró, que se deja a la izquierda.

El recorrido prosigue en ascenso hasta el collado donde enlaza con un camino hormigonado que conduce hasta Ares del Maestre, pasando por la fuente de Els Regatxols.
