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.

This route starts surrounded by orange groves and goes into the Alto de Tous mountain range, passing through paths and ravines of great environmental and geological value.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Salimos junto al restaurante Salón Ricardo por el camí de l'Algoleja paralelos al sequiol del Franc para continuar por el camí de Santo Domingo entre campos de naranjos hasta un desvío a la izquierda para coger a los pocos metros la senda del Puntal del Morico que remonta por la loma entre dos barrancos. Pasado el corral de Bufante llegamos al Alto de Tous y la vía pecuaria del Cordel de la Ceja que seguiremos por la derecha. Dejamos un primer desvío a la derecha para tomar el segundo y bajar por la senda del barranc del Morteral. Pasamos por la cova del Picane, y ya en la parte baja, con buenas vistas al Xúquer, dejamos a la izquierda la senda con la derivación a la Font del Sabater. Nosotros seguimos hasta una explotación agraria que primero bordeamos y después cruzamos ya en el camí de Santo Domingo, el mismo que hemos utilizado para venir y que nos conduce de nuevo a Sumacàrcer.
