Promoter: Ayuntamiento de Chulilla

Certification status: No quality controls

1 review

There is no proof of quality control on the record of this trail in the last years. For this reason, it is unknown whether it complies with the optimal signage and maintenance conditions for hikers to take the trail following these signs exclusively.
Hikers have to take into consideration that the information about the signage and maintenance of the trails for which the promoter entity is responsible might not be up to date anymore, since it refers to its state on the date of its approval. 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.

Trail that starts at the La Pelma spring, next to a recreational area. The trail borders on the mountain of La Bandera, partly along the Turia River. It has a variant leading to the Bandera viewpoint, from where you can enjoy the breathtaking landscape.
