Itinerary description

From Alfaix we descend into the Rambla and head for “fossil valley” Heading south through the gorge surrounded by shell embedded sandstone/limestone. Leaving the Rambla we head west across the Campo to our lunch spot at the ruined Caserio de Losa (now called Cortijo del Reclamo) before heading back down the Rambla Antas and one final ascent back to our cars.
Sign have been posted re certain areas on the right hand loop about hunters and access. I can only assume it is only weekends and fiestas.

    Second half was impossible to follow. Ended up doing lots of cross campo yomping. Not great.

    Same problem as last reviewer. It was not possible to follow the right trail. In fact the second half there was no clear trail at all. It was hard searching for the right way to get back to our starting point.
