Route description (only available in Spanish)

Nos adentramos en el barrio histórico de Chelva hasta llegar al área recreativa del Molino Puerto junto al Río Tuéjar. Ahora, junto campos de cultivo, el camino se convierte en senda hasta el puente de la Mozaira donde podemos observar el río encajonado.

Iniciaremos el ascenso hasta encontrarnos de nuevo con el camino de la Mozaira. Más adelante seguimos por el camino de Bercuta hasta la aldea del mismo nombre. Tomaremos el camino de Barchel y la senda que baja hasta el cauce del río Turia que atravesaremos por un puente colgante. Ya en pista del embalse de Benagéber, a la altura de los chorros de Barchel deberemos desviarnos en fuerte ascenso hasta la aldea de Barchel. A partir de aquí caminaremos por senda y terreno forestal hasta el camino de los Visos para seguir una pista forestal en dirección a la ermita de San Isidro y el pueblo de Benagéber.
