Itinerary description
A varied walk through the dense forest, orchards and idyllic pastureland of the western Alpujarras. The initial climb is quite steep, but good tree cover means that at least it's shaded. After you reach the highest point of the walk there are lovely views over the Órgiva valley, the Rules reservoir and the hills beyond.
There is a detailed description of this walk and more than 25 others on the Trek Sierra Nevada website, see www.treksierranevada.com/puente-palo-loop.html
Ruta muy bonita por un paisaje muy variado en la zona de Soportújar. Primero sube a la área recreativa Puente Palo, luego sigue el sendero Sulayr por la Acequia del Almiar y, finalmente, baja otra vez al punto de partida.

Great walk - a small diversion to the Atalaya viewpoint is a worthwhile addition
