Trail Reviews
Nice walk, with some climbs, in the 'Sierra Tejeda' on a narrow unpaved footpath along the ravine of the Almanchares river towards the approximately 50m long suspension bridge 'Puerto del Saltillo' at about 70m height.
We had a wonderful hike. The path led along a slope, steadily uphill. We had great views of the Maroma (approx. 2000 m high). Part of the path led over a footbridge attached to the rock. Very spectacular. On the way we met hikers from Portugal, the whole family sang us a Christian song. At the end there was a great waterfall in a gorge. We wish all hiking enthusiasts health and well-being in the new year. We look forward to hiking with you in the new year. Karin and Günter.
We actually wanted to go to the waterfall, but the path is closed shortly after the junction to the suspension bridge (March 2024). The route is still worth it, but it is popular and was therefore very well attended.
A small addendum to the tour. If you start at point B, then you start walking at the market square in the middle of the village. Parking is a bit more difficult there. Otherwise this is a very nice tour, which can also be done in the early morning in summer.
