Itinerary description

Start in Archez near the cafe-bar (closed on Sundays), here are some good parking spots.
Cross the old bridge and walk towards the Venta al Curro restaurant (Good Argentinian restaurant, great terrace, closed on Thuesdays). We had lunch here after this walk. We follow the road and near the mountain we go up. Please follow the gps trail as much as possible. A small part of this route goes over private priperty near a deserted house. Never seen an owner here... Most walking is on good tracks / road.(exept near this house where you walk through the olive yard garden thing) maybee you can improve this part of the walk. When returning to Archez you'' see in order. The old electricity fabric, the cemetary, bar La Peña, restaurant Mudejar, the church, the previous mentioned cafe bar were you started the walk.
PS: A rusty gate blocking the road? Right from the gate you go under the fence. The small river near the old mill you have to cross at a good spot. We did without getting wet feets. Not to difficult. Stepping stones in the river. Enjoy this short walk

The old flower mill was a electricity station before. Take care when you go inside, the building (floor, roofs) is not solid anymore

Ca 400 inhabitants. Several bars, restaurant though. In summer nice and cool due to the river. Always a little wind. In wintertime a little warmer because its low in the valley
