DESCRIPTION

The path starts near the Canaleja Alta Recreational Area and takes us to the vicinity of the Prados del Rey, one of the most emblematic areas of this natural park and an area of maximum protection. We can choose between the two variants of the path:

Following the East variant, longer, we cross the Fuente de los Tornajos, used for livestock, before arriving at Collado Clarín where the Los Neveros trail begins.

The western variant, which is shorter and steeper, runs along a section of the GR-7, which crosses this protected natural area. On a large part of the path there are cairns which are milestones indicating the limits of the public mountains.

The route crosses a beautiful forest of wild pine forest (a mixture of autochthonous and reforested) with specimens of deciduous vegetation (maples, sorrels, mustards, etc.) that take advantage of the humidity of this shady area.

It is ideal for walking at any time of the year, with the attraction in autumn being the sound of the rutting and the landscape of deciduous trees.

On arriving at Prados del Rey we can complete our visit with several trails in the surroundings of the Calar de Santa Bárbara, which will allow us to learn more about the mining past of these mountains.
