Itinerary description
Pórtugos -- small hike through the orchards (Text Wikiloc)
This makes a beautiful little hike, e.g. in the late afternoon, after arrival in Pórtugos. The first few hundret meters are on the Camino Médieval to Adalbéitar. Then you walk mainly on small trails though orchards, along irrigation channels, past an old mill, with views into the gorge of Rio Trevellez and over some of the small white villages of La Taha.

Very good little hike amongst the orchards. Part of it follows the main road but it’s not an issue as it is very quiet. Don’t miss taking a look at Agua Agria (ferruginous water spring) and at the Chorreron (pretty red cascade with the same ferruginous water)
