SL-CV 80 SENDA DEL PORTALET

Promoter: Ayuntamiento de Gandia

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 pleasant and short route running through the Borrell and Gota ravines to the Portalet area, where you can see an interesting rock formation that gives the path its name.

Route description (only available in Spanish)

Iniciamos el sendero desde la urbanización Montesol por el camino que transcurre paralelo al barranco de Borrell. En pocos minutos la pista desaparece para dar paso a una senda donde encontramos el mirador de la Tortugueta. Continuamos por la senda que baja hacia el barranco que cruzamos un par de veces. Poco más adelante remontamos el barranco de la Gota y pasamos por el mirador del Borrel. Seguimos hasta el Portalet, una gran roca calcárea agujereada, con forma de arco, modelada por la acción de la erosión.
