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 beautiful path immersed in the Espadán mountain range, which runs through the municipality of Aín, revealing its rich natural and cultural heritage.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Nos dirigimos a la plaza del Ayuntamiento que cruzamos por el bar de la cooperativa y buscar la calle de la Sequieta que nos saca de la localidad por una bonita zona de cultivo junto al barranco de Eslida.

Seguimos el barranco para dirigirnos a la CV-233, que tomamos a la izquierda, pasando por el mirador de Aín. A escasos metros seguimos un camino por la derecha que nos conduce a la fuente de la Basseta. Desde allí, tomamos una senda ascendente que al rato desemboca en un bonito collado. Continuamos por pista enlazando un pequeño tramo con los senderos GR 333, GR 36 y PR-CV 140 para, al poco, dejarlos en sentido ascendente.

Pasamos tramos de antiguas trincheras que nos llevarán a la cima de la peña de la Campana y sus características antenas. Desde allí, tomamos una pista en sentido descendente pasando junto a un monolito con una cruz, recuerdo de los acontecimientos de la Guerra Civil que allí se vivieron. Seguimos el descenso alternando tramos de pista y senda por amplias zonas de olivares hasta llegar de nuevo a la carretera CV-223. Ya en la carretera, la seguimos hasta llegar de nuevo a Aín.
