Route description (only available in Spanish)

Desde la font del Molí, situada a los pies del Puig Campana, el sendero se dirige hacia el norte, ascendiendo gradualmente por senda bien marcada para pasar por el refugio José Manuel Vera. El sendero continúa hacia el collado del Pouet, ofreciendo vistas impresionantes del Puig Campana y del valle circundante. Desde aquí, la ruta asciende hacia el collado del Llamp, uno de los puntos más altos del recorrido, con panorámicas espectaculares tanto del Mediterráneo como de las montañas interiores.

Tras el collado del Llamp, el sendero desciende ligeramente y atraviesa el collado de la Coveta de la Moscarda. El camino sigue hacia la casa de Déu. Más adelante, el sendero llega al área recreativa del Castellet para, a partir de aquí, coger el tramo de asfalto que irá descendiendo. Cruzaremos la carretera CV-70 cerca de la rotonda. Finalmente, el recorrido termina cerca del casco urbano de Polop, enfrente del Bar-Café Ensueño.
