Promoter: Ayuntamiento de Xaló

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.

An old path that used to connect Xaló with Tàrbena and leads to the Coll de Rates viewpoint. A pleasant walk among dry stone terraces that are home to the traditional crops of the area. It also offers beautiful views from the viewpoint of the Vall de Pop.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

La salida la hacemos desde el Paseo de la Alameda donde está el Panel Informativo de la Ruta, al lado de la Tourist-Info de Xaló.Justo enfrente cruzando la CV-750 tenemos un camino con una señal indicativa de 'Camí Passula', cerca de este punto pasaremos por delante del Pozo Passula.Es un camino asfaltado con diferentes ramificaciones a ambos lados (Camí Cervera, Camí Mento), los cuales no tomaremos, siendo este claramente el principal.En este trayecto podemos observar diferentes cultivos típicos del Mediterráneo Alicantino, almendros, vides, algarrobos, olivos de los cuales destacan unos Centenarios que los tenemos al lado del camino.El trayecto asfaltado tiene una longitud de 2,85 Km. pasando a camino de tierra. A los pocos metros de ser de tierra, llegaremos a un cruce con un camino asfaltado que viene de Alcalalí. A partir de este punto comenzaremos el ascenso por senda de tierra que nos llevará al Mirador del Coll de Rates. Después de 1,47 Km llegamos a una bifurcación, seguiremos recto-derecha dejando la senda de la izquierda (antiguo camí de Tàrbena). A 115 m llegaremos a una bifurcación, enlace con el ''PR-CV 158 El Carrascal de Parcent'', continuaremos el ascenso hacia la izquierda hasta llegar al Mirador de Coll de Rates.
