Worthwhile detour through this picturesque gorge. The fully packed touring bike just barely fit (see photo), short pushing sections. Respect for the amount of work that went into these wooden walkways!

The route descends from the CU-V-5003 road to the Algarra River, offering glimpses of it from within the valley. Along paths parallel to the river, you'll see orchards, tree plantations, and riverside land, some of which is also visible from the access roads and sides of the CU-V-5003.

Roman-era bridge over the Zafrilla River. Inscription on the plaque: The passage of the Romans through this municipality has left us with numerous magnificent buildings. The materials used are always from Roman times, and in this case, ashlar from the nearby La Hoz quarry. The magnificent bridge over the Zafrilla River has been completely preserved since its construction; the Roman road above it is still visible. Unfortunately, the passage of time has destroyed part of its structure.

Sculpture commemorating the victims of the plane crash on April 29, 1959. An Iberia Douglas DC-3 aircraft flying from Barcelona to Madrid deviated from its route due to a storm and crashed into the Pico del Telégrafo (peak of Collado Bajo) between the towns of Valdemeca and Huerta del Marquesado. On this flight, along with the 27 other people traveling on the plane, Spanish gymnast Joaquín Blume lost his life. He was one of Spain's most popular athletes of his time, world champion in 1957 and winner of several consecutive Spanish championships. His wife also died. The rescue of the victims proved extremely difficult. It was snowing when the first people arrived at the scene, some reforestation workers. During the lengthy operation to recover the bodies, it snowed intermittently throughout the night and into the next day. Chronicles describe Dantesque scenes, as almost all of the victims of the accident were scattered over a vast and completely forested area. The notoriety of the prominent victim, Joaquín Blume, made it impossible for the Franco dictatorship to cover up the accident. An interesting fact surrounding this event is that a certain Antonio Fraguas de Pablo (1942–2018) missed the plane, fortunately for him and for us. The then 17-year-old later became very famous as a Spanish graphic humorist/cartoonist under the pen name Forges. He was awarded the Gold Medal for Merit to His Work in 2007, the Gold Medal for Merit to Fine Arts in 2011, and the Ondas Mediterráneas Award in 2011. www.forges.com

The Vencherque River River Walk is a charming route located in Villar del Humo, in the province of Cuenca. It is a flat and easy route, suitable for all ages. Enjoy a quiet walk along the river, surrounded by diverse vegetation such as walnut trees, cattails and poplars.
