Promoter: Centre Excursionista Les Caves

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.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Iniciamos el sendero en el Santuario de la Virgen María del Castell de Agres, donde enfilamos la senda de las Cavas que nos conduce hasta el refugio del Montcabrer. Desde aquí buscamos el camino de Llopis que va hacia el cortijo homónimo. Llegamos al cortijo donde encontramos también fuente de Llopis. Ahora empezamos a bajar en dirección a Cocentaina atravesando de nordeste a suroeste toda la vertiente norte del Montcabrer. Pasaremos en nuestro descenso por las fuentes de Sanxo, de la Esquerola y de la Peña Bañada, antes de llegar al área recreativa de la ermita de San Cristóbal.
