Itinerary description

31 01 2023

Fuente Techá Circular, Alozania

This walk went pear shaped. It was supposed to be the PR-A 273 and 273.1 to the summit of Sierra Prieta.

We couldn’t find the path due to overgrown vegetation, lack of signposts and cairns. We got to a section and decided to turn back, as the rock climbing was precarious, and the official gpx route was way off the gps signal.

Disappointed didn’t make it to the summit of Prieta, although the circular route was nice with great views.
Wear long trousers as there are lots of prickly bushes about.

Near the start of the route you have the Techada fountain and the Techada lime kiln (the biggest one I have ever seen!)

Will attempt the route again at some stage, as I think I know where I went wrong
