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.

This variant allows you to get from Alpuente to the hill of the corral de la Pastora, crossing Hoz de Alpuente.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Dejamos el GR principal en la parte baja del pueblo para seguir una senda que bordea el lienzo de las antiguas murallas y el cerro del castillo y que desciende en zig-zag al río Reguero y su impresionante paraje de la Bomba. Cruzamos el cauce y remontamos para bordear el cinglo del Sastre y tomar el camino de Anduriel hasta el collado del corral de la Pastora donde enlazamos con el GR de nuevo.
