Las Hoyetas, Los Aceviños and El Cedro
A circular walk starting from Las Hoyetas, opposite the football ground where there are several parking spaces. The path begins amongst the houses with built-in steps. The climb is very steep and there are magnificent viewpoints, worthy of the finest panoramas.
The walk begins with a gruelling 600-metre climb, a mix of steps and steep slopes. The steps end at the Mirador (Hermitage) of San Juan, after which the paths remain very steep. It continues through the woodland along various paths of varying degrees of maintenance until Los Aceviños.
The descent towards El Cedro is very steep, and, from the hamlet onwards, there is a succession of steps that are very hard on the legs.
Despite the challenging nature of the paths, this walk is magnificent, offering great diversity in scenery and vegetation.
