Itinerary description

Starting out from Fogarate, take the track up towards La Maroma. Crossing over the firebreak as you rise to 1600 m, keep left. In the springtime ( this walk was mid-February) watch out for processional caterpillars (especially with dogs).
Follow the ridge along for a few hundred metres & then veer left.
Follow this track down to a recently (& partially ) reformed farmhouse.
The track is a bit sketchy from here down. There's a mixture of firebreak and goat-tracks.
Eventually after a steep decent on the firebreak , you'll see a deposito and follow the Acequia out on to a path. These is part of the GR 249. Follow the track down to a goat farm. Keep left and follow this road by to the start of your walk.
