PR-GU 21 Huertapelayo al Tajo

This route starts in the village of Huertapelayowith a distance of 7.58 kilometres and a tour circularhas a unevenness considerable that can be done pretty toughFor this reason we can say that it is a rather difficult route and not for everyone.

It is a path on which you can appreciate different curious geomorphological elements, plant formations, a great diversity of flora and fauna species, as well as a very little humanised landscape.

During the route we will also be able to observe ethnographic elements The remains of the remains are the result of ancient human use of the area, especially constructions dedicated to livestock or to the production of lime.

To start the route we have to park the vehicle at the entrance to the village, where we find a small esplanade, from where we can see the sign for the start of the trail.
