Itinerary description
The first part of this walk goes gently down to Fuente Bermeja, a source at a short distance from the Refugio Bermeja.
After a short steep climb you will find yourself at a canal that you will follow for a couple of kilometers.
This part of the track stays more or less at the same level, 620m., and is not diffficult but at times there is stubborn overgrown vegetation which will force you to bend deeply in order to be able to pass.
When you arrive at the tiny waterfall like stream the track turns north west and goes to an ancient aquaduct.
Shortly after you will arrive at the road which we followed to Casa Forestal Huerta Espuña.
From here the track, white/yellow/red descends and later goes up along a beautiful path to a col, Collado de Los Siete Hermanos.
From this col the track descends to the Refugio Casa Leyva.
