Route description (only available in Spanish)

Partimos desde el mirador de la Cruz del Portitxol tomando la senda que sale de la cruz y avanzamos hasta el cruce de sendas que tomamos la de la derecha. La senda transcurre por un paraje donde predomina el aladierno, uña de gato, algarrobos y pinos. Después de superar un pequeño bosque de pinos, la senda se bifurca y tomamos la de la derecha. Bajamos unos escalones y encontramos una valla que nos acompañará prácticamente hasta el final del recorrido. Después de varios tramos de escalones llegamos a la Cala Barraca.
