DATA OF INTEREST
DESCRIPTION

The path has a total length of 20 kilometres that can be done on foot, with several different stops, the most interesting coinciding with the fairly well-preserved remains of four of the existing trenches in the Sierra de Huétor Natural Park, specifically the Maúllo, Sierra de la Yedra, El Fraile and Las Veguillas trenches. All of them running along different hiking trails in the natural park.

The trenches itinerary is intended to disseminate part of our recent history, as well as to let us enjoy the magnificent views offered by these strategic places in the higher areas of the natural park.

This self-guided trail can be done using GPS technology, supported by orientation signs of coordinates arranged along the route. There are 16 GPS points marked on these signs and placed at junctions and turn-offs along the paths, these can be used to follow the complete itinerary or adapt it to the amount of time and preparation of each one. You are able to choose the sections that you want to cover between the different points.
