Borosa River Water Canal Tunnel

Highlight • Structure

This tunnel was made to bring water from the source of the Borosa River and the Aguas Negras lagoon to the hydroelectric plant. Inside there are quite dark sections, so it is good to bring a flashlight.

Collado de Góntar

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Góntar pass is the lower part of the Góntar hill (1691 m). It is located at the northern end of Calar del Cobo, where there is a huge vertically arranged opening or slit that characterizes this great rock formation.

Tranco del Perro

Highlight • Trail

The limestone fortress of the mountain seems inaccessible, it is a labyrinth of towers, spiers and canals, which are called trancos in the mountains. The path continues east along the main path. In this section you can clearly see the work commissioned by the forestry engineer Enrique Mackay, at the beginning of the 20th century, to connect the forest houses of the mountain range.

The path is impeccable, it passes a gate at the entrance to Tranco del Perro, where it has a stark section, and climbs to the lunar terrain of Puntal del Águila and its procession of limestone “banderillas” that form the pedestal of the summit of Banderillas. The path leaves Tranco del Perro and a crossroads appears on a hill marked with stone markers. The summit route turns left, there is still a good squeeze left. The path on the right is the way down.

Hike-a-bike

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This is a steep hiking path descent into the beautiful Río Segura Gorge so is likely to involve hike-a-bike. Worth the hike though!

May 23, 2024, Túnel del Canal de Agua del Río Borosa

It is convenient to carry a headlamp so you have your hands. In some short stretches there is not enough natural light.

Spectacular rock formation that witnesses everything that happens around it due to its strategic position. Everyone who gets there is privileged! 😊

Rock formation of spectacular proportions that over time has been fragmented into two huge rock portions.

There are some "windows" in the rock, but it is still very dark in places. A flashlight is helpful.
