Promoter: Parque Natural de la Sierra de Espadán

Certification status: Conditioned quality control

1 review

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.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Desde el área recreativa de Villamalur, en el Barranco del Pinar, proseguimos por la pista asfaltada, obviamos la ruta del GR-333, que se desvía a la izquierda, al poco surge un sendero a la izquierda que nos conduce de nuevo a la carretera. Continuamos ésta hasta una baliza de seguimiento vertical que nos desvía por una senda a nuestra izquierda y nos conduce de manera ascendente hasta el Collado Castillejo y la carretera. A la derecha, sale una pista con marcas del  PR-CV 276 y otras azules. El GR. continua a la derecha, de la Carretera, marca junto a señal de tráfico. Baja dejando a la derecha paralelo al recorrido del sendero, el barranco de Montalbana. Desvío sin señalizar, izquierda por una pista de arrastre. Después de una primera vaguada continuamos ascendiendo y seguimos sendero, hasta llegar a otro cruce con el GR 333. Continuamos a la derecha nuestro sendero ascendiendo hasta el collado antes de cruzar una última vaguada y llegamos a la carretera, al alto de San Cristobal. Giramos a la derecha y continuamos durante unos doscientos metros por la carretera hasta el cruce del SL-CV 103 "El Pinar" que nos sale a nuestra izquierda. Se ve el pueblo de Torralba del Pinar. Dejamos la carretera y continuamos descendiendo por este tramo coincidente de ambos senderos. Entramos en el pueblo hasta llegar a la carretera de Ayódar.
