A cycling route starting in Albanchez, Andalusia, Spain.

Overview

About this route

0

The route was intended to go to the geodetic vertex of Cantoria exploring the terrain by a drawn track. It starts from Albanchez by the river Los Molinas with abundant water despite it being mid-August, to climb up a fairly steep slope on its right bank toward Cobdar. It then continues upward along a recently asphalted section until a small firebreak that must be climbed on foot to take the ridge and then descend to Lijar. From here, I continue to turn around myself as I cannot find the path I was supposed to follow. Higher up, at the rambla, there was a better path to go up, but I discovered it too late. I go down into a gorge to start an ascent to the geodetic vertex along an abandoned path. At this point, I abort the route due to lack of time and head down through the gorge toward the rambla of the RĂ­o Lijar. The intention was to go down along the rambla, but it was impassable (not even on foot). I follow a marked trail on the map which disappears at times, and through 'nowhere' I reach a track that I have taken before, and after climbing a hill I reach the road from Lijar to Albanchez by which I would finally arrive at the village. Be careful with the constant hesitations in the track if you plan to follow it, and do not try to go down along the rambla.
