Itinerary description
Starting from the parking at Hoya de Portillo which is the closest point you can drive yourself without the tourist bus. Heading to Mirador Trevélez, it‘s an easy to follow path with a continuous ascent. It‘s technically quite easy. For the descent, it‘s great to have hiking poles as it is quite steep in parts. There is no water on the ascent, but there is little rivers on the second third of the descent (one of the highlights of the entire trail I found).
Technically easy route, only challenging in terms of the length.
