Itinerary description
- Cueva de los Pajareros (0.4 km)
- Pino Gordo (1.0 km)
- Cruz de Alfacar (2.6 km)
- Cerro de la Cruz (3.0 km)
- Collado de la Rata (3.5 km)
- Cueva del Agua (4.5 km)
- Fuente Alfaguara (6.5 km)
This easy walk will give you beautiful views all around.
The first part is through pinewoods, followed by a stony track through open country with panoramas to the south, topped by a 360 degrees panorama from Cruz de Alfacar, with the whole range of the high peaks in the the Sierra Nevada in view.
The short detour to Cerro de Alfacar is worth its while, you can even sit comfortably there on the rocks and enjoy the majestic view.
Although the mountain range of the Sierra Nevada disappears during the descent there will be moments wth great views to the east and the track through the woods is pleasant.
The Cuava del Agua, also a Mirador is worth the detour too.
The last part of the walk is along a gradually descending broad track.
