Itinerary description

From Cazorla to La Iruela and Tobazo de Rechita in the Sierra de Gazorla.

We walk straight from a very nice camperspot to the left, very steep uphill to La Iruela.. walking through the village we already see the Castillo doom up. The Castillo is a very dominant feature in a spectacular landscape setting.

Arrive early because it closes on 14.00h (until 16.00) and cost you only €1 and well worth it! We only had 35 mins to see everything, but you can wander there for hours!

After this we leave La Iruela again walking up to have some great views of Gazorla and literal millions of olive trees in the valley down below.

Walking up to the cascade we pass a few Miradors, then we head back towards Castillo de la Yedra and Cazorla.
