Promoter: Ayuntamiento de Tous

Certification status: Conditioned quality control

0 reviews

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.

A comfortable trail that runs entirely on paved roads and tracks. It starts in the village of Tous, leading to the Pertecaste cave, passing through several micro-reserves of flora and ending at the beautiful natural amphitheatre and waterfall of the Pertecaste ravine.
