SL-CV 74 EL CHARCO AZUL

Promoter: Ayuntamiento de Chulilla

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 beautiful and simple route leading to one of the best known spots in Chulilla: the Charco Azul pond, in the Turia Canyon, enclosed by spectacular walls where you can go climbing.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Desde la plaza de la Baronía, bajamos por la C/ San Juan y salir del pueblo por la C/ Charco Azul donde dejamos el SL-CV 72 que bordea la peña del castillo. El camino pasa por la Ramunda entre algarrobos y en zig-zag se va haciendo cada vez más estrecho. Dejamos la primera bajada y bordeamos la peña del Mosén hasta el canal que seguiremos hasta el charco Azul. Cruzamos el río por unas losas de cemento y nos podemos acercar hasta el azud. Retrocedemos para seguir por el camino que va siguiendo el cauce, cruzando varias veces el río. A partir del paraje de peña Judía el cañón se va abriendo dejando paso a pequeños huertos con vistas de la cueva Gollizno. A la altura de la depuradora donde encontramos el enlace con el PR-CV 76 y PR-CV 77 ascendemos al pueblo por la C/ Turia, C/ Arrabal, C/ Evelio Valero y C/ Mayor finalizando en la plaza de la Baronía.
