Walk Description
Take the side road right you have just passed to the Restaurant Vall de Cavall, crossing over the old bridge. Follow this road up the hill for 1.3Km.
At 1.3Km there is a path left going due North to a pylon. Take this path and stay on it until you reach some old farm ruins. When you are about 10 metres from the ruin there is a rocky path going left (West) up an incline into the bushes.
Follow this path as it skirts a field and leads down to a white painted shed. Turn left at the shed down a wide gravel road passing the gate of a residence. Stay on this path ignoring roads going of to the right and left until you reach the tarmac road again.
Turn right at the tarmac road for 280 metres until you reach a concrete road going left uphill. Take this road for 270m which turns into an earth track, past a store building and a pylon until you reach the tree line. The last part of this track, which has turned into a single track, is through high grass. At 270m there is a wide track going right (West). Take this track until you meet a T junction.
Turn right at the T junction and take this track back to the tarmac road. Turn left at the Tarmac road and across the bridge again back to the start.
