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.

This variant allows you to visit the castle of Borró, from the Muslim period and its spring. It also takes you to Barranc Blanc, one of the best-preserved ravines in the mountain range.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Partimos en el cruce del barranc Blanc con el río Vernissa. Por pista de tierra que en fuerte repecho se transforma en senda. Pasaremos enseguida cerca de unas escaleras que en caso de tomarlas nos llevaran a la zona de escalada de la Penya del barranc Blanc. Continuamos subiendo por el barranco hasta llegar a la fuente del Castell, que se encuentra a los pies del Castell. Continuamos subiendo el barranco hasta que en un giro a la izquierda buscamos la salida del barranco acercándonos al collado cercano al castillo de Borró. Una vez en el collado podemos tomar la senda que nos lleva al castillo o continuar por el sendero que vamos para conectar el sendero principal.
