Route description (only available in Spanish)

Partimos de Alpuente por el extremo sur del casco urbano y descendemos hacia el barranco del Reguero, la parte baja del Solanar y la deshabitada aldea en ruinas de la Hortichuela. Tras cruzar el barranco del Reguero, afrontamos la subida más exigente de la etapa, que nos conduce hasta la fuente del Cabezo.

Superado este tramo, el recorrido se suaviza y continúa íntegramente por pista forestal hasta el final. En el trayecto pasamos por la tejería, las ermitas de san Juan y san Roque, y finalmente por la fuente del Carmen, donde concluye la etapa.
