PR-CV 175 LES RODANES

Promoter: Ayuntamiento de Vilamarxant

Certification status: Conditioned quality control

1 review

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.

The trail runs through the Local Natural Area of Interest of les Rodanes, which is part of the Turia Natural Park and includes the ascent to Rodana Gran and Rodana del Pic. In addition, in the Bassa Barreta area, there is an adapted path that runs through an arboretum.

Cemetery - Urbanización la Rodana (residential area) - Cañada Rodaneta Blanca (cattle track) - Camino de la Bassa Barreta (path) - Rodana del Pic - Els Cavallons/El Massís - Racó dels Ferrers - Bassa Barreta (pond) - Rodana Gran - Cemetery

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Desde el cementerio, por carretera abierta al tráfico, nos dirigimos hacia el final de la urbanización la Rodana donde tomamos una senda que atraviesa la cañada de la Rodaneta Blanca hasta llegar al camí de la Bassa de Barreta, donde nos desviamos a nuestra izquierda. Más adelante, aparece a nuestra derecha una pista que asciende entre chalets hasta llegar al panel informativo de la derivación de las trincheras de la Ferraura y el Clau.

Dejamos la pista y cogemos la senda a nuestra derecha que en progresivo ascenso nos llevará hasta la cima de la Rodana del Pic. Descendemos por el mismo camino y nos dirigimos en dirección a Els Cavallons / El Massis. Nuestra referencia serán las torres de alta tensión. Por debajo de una de ellas pasaremos mientras descendemos en dirección al racó dels Ferrers. Siguiendo por la pista llegaremos a la Bassa de Barreta, al arboreum y al albergue, completando uno de los bucles.

El siguiente bucle toma una senda que asciende por un frondoso barranco hasta llegar a una pista forestal por la que subimos hasta llegar a un cruce. Tomamos la pista de nuestra derecha que en fuerte ascenso nos conducirá hasta la cima de la Rodana Gran, punto más elevado del recorrido. Retrocediendo unos metros por donde hemos subido, bajamos hasta el cruce que sale a nuestra derecha. Nosotros seguimos recto hasta el final de la pista que enlaza con la senda empinada que baja hasta el bosque que hay junto a la urbanización la Rodana. Tomamos la misma carretera que al inicio del sendero que nos conducirá de nuevo al cementerio.
