A highly recommended route for taking your time to enjoy the finest landscapes of the southern Sierra de Guara.
The route climbs from the foothills of the Adahuesca mountains towards Alquézar, passing through holm oak forests, cereal fields and Mediterranean crops such as olive and almond trees. From Alquézar to Radiquero, the route involves a series of gentle ups and downs, offering beautiful panoramic views of the foothills and the flatlands. From Radiquero, we gradually lose the elevation we gained on the ascent until we reach Alberuela de Laliena and finally Adahuesca. The route features a few steep but short inclines, though the route is generally very gentle along tracks in good condition.
The route can be extended by combining it with those to the Ermita de Treviño or San Pelegrín.

WARNINGS
It is a route relatively easy except for two steep climbs from Adahuesca to Alquézar and a stony slope from Alquézar to Adahuesca a16> to Alquézar and one stony climb in the vicinity of Radiquero.
It is a route running south and with little shade, so you need to bring water and avoid the midday hours of the day.
Signage
The route is is signposted as the Vuelta to the foot of the Sierra, but at one particular junction the signage has disappeared. Before reaching Alberuela, you must ignore the signs that lead towards the village on the right and carry on straight straight ahead towards the main road following the GPS track.
