Circular Route Alto del Montero

In Hornos de Segura we take the road A-317 towards Pontones and take a right turn, at the height of the village of Hornos el Viejo, towards La Plantera. We passed a few meters from this village and reached another crossing, where the asphalt is finished, we turned left, in the direction of the Fountain de la Higuera. The beginning of the path is 3.5 km (approx.) from this crossing. This forest track borders the Embalse del Tranco, we will leave to the right a recreational area, called Fountain de la Higuera and just 200 meters to the right begins our route, initially by a forest track with a little use.

A very good path for the observation of fauna, especially the boar and deer. It is recommended to go in silence and very attentive. Animals usually go down to drink, and sometimes they are surprised very close to the itinerary. In addition, the semi-abandoned olive groves in the area of Arroyo Montero are exceptional areas of grass. This path can also be realized from the area of Coto Ríos, entering the forest track of Llanos de Arance and following it to the end, where we would find the Arroyo Montero, by being circular, we could also do it from there in its entirety.
