Route description (only available in Spanish)

Desde las casas de la Solana nos dirigimos al norte buscando la sierra de la Solana. En un cruce seguimos a la izquierda y pasamos por el corral de David. Continuamos paralelo al barranco del Tramusser hasta las cercanías del altet de les Salves donde lo dejamos para girar hacia el oeste buscando la planicie de els Calderons y la vereda del Camino de las Fuentes donde enseguida encontramos el Calderó Major, un charco, excavado en la roca que servía como punto de abastecimiento de agua.

Seguimos el sendero que baja por el barranco de Galvany y, en menos de dos kilómetros, volvemos al corral de David y de nuevo al camino de la Font para volver en su punto de inicio por el mismo lugar.
