LONG DESCRIPTION

This circular route begins in Jérez del Marquesado and walks towards the Barranco del Alcázar ravine, following the acequia and the Alcázar reservoir among chestnut, holm oak, and pine trees. We pass the remains of three old hydroelectric power plants, with steep ascents alongside pipelines and the former workers' houses. The route is notable for its spectacular autumn colours and the La Tizná recreational area. We return to the starting point along the PR-A 31, descending through pine forests to the acequia.

Note: The GPX time is the time on the GPX file. The GPX might not be accurate if during the walk the walkers went for a meal for example. Naismith is a formula based on distance and elevation.
