Trail de la Mina de Mimbre
Description
Circular path that begins in the Hermitage of Linarejos and continues along the way of the old railway Linares- Los Salidos that, among olive trees, leads to the San Luis Foundry. After exceeding the Fundition the road is abandoned and to the right you have to take a dirty lane that has as reference, 50? m., a house in ruins with three eucalyptus. After a curve to the left the lane is occupied by an olive grove, but it does not prevent the passage; then you have to follow to the right until you reach the green track that links the La Cruz Foundry with the well 4 and Linares.

Technical Description
This place is known as Christ of the Valley. 20 meters to the left, on the other side of the road is an old house in ruins with rocks piled to its side by tapping and hiding an old road that descends to the well El Calvary, surrounded by vegetation and where it impresses its support of cabria and fireplace. We must continue on a narrow road that leads to the Mina del Mimbre, where we will be particularly careful not to get out of the way by the various sinking of the ground that can be appreciated.
We follow the route without leaving the main track, with a south direction, until we reach a crossing near two large houses in ruins, where we leave the track.
This mine is one of the oldest in the district and had an important production already in the 17th century. Later, it is connected to the Mimbre Coast and the La Garza path, PR-A 262. We will have to overcome this common stretch to a closed curve before the slope is over, where the PR-A 262 is separated to the right and heading to the Arrayanes Mineral Laundry. We follow the route without leaving the main track, with a south direction, until we reach a crossing near two large houses in ruins, where we leave the track to follow the road leading to the well San Vicente, the deepest of the district, where the double masonry goat stands out. The Via Verde, a point very close to the San Luis Fundition, is later crossed. Without changing course we continue on a wide track across the track, which we will not leave at any time until we return to the Hermitage of Linarejos.
