SL-CV 17.2 SENDA PUNTAL DEL MORICO Y MURTERAL

Promoter: Ayuntamiento de Sumacàrcer

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 interesting route that, through traditional trails, takes us through the Júcar riverbank and the Sumacàrcer mountain, in a setting of great environmental and geological value.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Salimos de Sumacàrcer por el camino de Santo Domingo paralelos a la acequia de Escalona y que cruza los barrancos del Llop y de Antón antes de llegar al punto donde empieza el tramo circular del sendero. Dejamos a la izquierda el acceso a la senda del Puntal del Morico, por la que bajaremos, para seguir por el camino de Santo Domingo. Cruzamos el barranco de la Cova Balde y más adelante, en un cruce, giramos a la izquierda para, enseguida, tomar el camino a la derecha que acaba e iniciamos la subida por la senda del Murteral.

Dejamos la bajada al área recreativa de la presa de Tous y seguimos el ascenso paralelos al barranco del Murteral. Pasamos por la cueva del Picante y en la parte alta del barranco, casi en su lecho, la senda gira para remontar en pequeños zig-zags hacia una torre de luz en la loma Plana. Seguimos ahora el camino por la derecha hasta el camino de la Ceja.

Continuamos por la izquierda hasta la bajada de la senda del Puntal de Morico. Pasamos por el corral del Bufante. La senda sigue la loma entre dos barrancos para llegar de nuevo al camino de Santo Domingo. Rehacemos los pasos del inicio para volver a Sumacàrcer.
