Immediately after entering the park turn left and drive up the slight incline.

Parking is available on both sides of the road.

Walk Description

1. Take the road opposite the picnic/children’s park next to “the large black building”. After a short distance turn right at the T-junction and follow the tarmac road down the hill. At approximately 50m the road forks and is sign posted Assegador de Canor, take this left hand fork down the hill.
2. Continue down the hill until you reach another fork, turn left and go up the steep hill and between a number of houses close to the tarmac road. At this point there are splendid views of the countryside to your left.
3. At the next T-junction turn right and shortly after the road bends to the left, continue on until you reach another T-junction. Turn left and admire the views of Benissa in the distance.
4. Follow the flat tarmac road, ignoring all roads to the right. A derelict finca, close to the road and on the left hand side, will come into view. Go past the finca, continue on this road until you reach a metal pylon on your right.
5. At this point turn right onto Cami Teulera de Canor and follow the tarmac road downhill until you reach a ‘STOP’ sign. Turn left and after a few meters turn left again, the road is signposted to Gata de Gorgos and this runs parallel to the motorway slip road with the old toll booths on your right.
6. As you turn away from the motorway slip road you will notice a number of mail boxes on your right. Shortly after passing the mail boxes the road forks, take the right fork signposted to Torreta de Canor.
7. Continue on this tarmac road ignoring the ‘no through road’ on your left. The road bends to the right, goes past a white villa on the right and then becomes a wide gravel and stony track.
8. After approximately 400 meters the track merges into a tarmac road, take the road straight ahead towards the Pedrera industrial park. Just after the road starts to descend turn right onto a concrete surface and the car parking area.
