Fountain of the Seven Spouts. Albanchez de Mágina

Descripción larga

The Fuente de los Siete Caños is a water spring located about 500 metres south of the town of Albanchez de Mágina. This is a clear example of rural architecture, one that combined aesthetics with functionality to pleasing effect. In this case, little explanation is needed, as it is plain to see how the water was put to use for the trough, the washing place, and the irrigation of nearby market gardens and olive groves.

The fountain's construction features a finely finished stone ashlar front. It has seven water spouts, in bronze pipes, which give it a pleasing appearance. It carries a fairly abundant flow, which has never dried up, although in times of drought it tends to reduce somewhat.

The water flow collects in a trough of modest depth, which until recently was used to quench the thirst of the "beasts" that worked the land. Each spout carries a variable flow, with the last one carrying the greatest. Attached to it is a public washing place, featuring two rows for washing clothes and an iron fitting. The water from the washing place flows from the trough through a small stone channel, fitted with a grille to protect anyone passing over it.
The rest area also has street furniture for sitting and enjoying impressive views of the Albanchez river, El Torcal and Bedmar.

This spot also lies along the Route to the Caldera del Tío Lobo, so if you enjoy hiking, don't hesitate to walk it. And once you've completed it, stop, rest and enjoy the surroundings.

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
RUT-0015
Descripción larga
A circular route that brings together the best of Jimena: prehistoric memory, unique and panoramic pine on Sierra Magina, in an accessible and very visual route. The tour is an excellent gateway to the hiking in Magina: short and very complete. Part of the Hermitage of Cánava, next to its source, and ascends to the Cueva de la Graja, one of the most relevant sets of rock art in the region (Good of Cultural Interest). After the visit, the road enters the Pinar de Cánava, Natural Monument, where the crooked pine trees, the resin in the air and the constant shadow accompany the passage. The tour continues towards Los Caracoles, a former quarry now integrated into the landscape, and crosses a stretch of lapiaz (limestone shaped by water) that adds a point of geological character to the itinerary. The rise culminates on the Cross of the Atalaya, a wide view over Jimena, the Aznaitin and the main summits of Sierra Mágina. The return goes down gently between pine and olive trees, passing by the ruins of the Lancar Cortijo, until the circuit is closed again in the hermitage. It is an ideal route for those who seek landscape, history and views without great physical demands, and very grateful at any time of the year. General recommendations Check the weather, use shoes with good grip on stony sections and carry enough water. In the Cueva de la Graja, do not touch the walls, avoid the flash and always follow the local directions.

Columpio Gigante de Torres – Ravine ofl Arroanduelo – Portillo de la Zarzadilla

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
RUT-0013
Descripción larga
Short and panoramic circular route in the Torres environment, with an initial rise with character and a comfortable return between benches and olive groves. The tour links traditional paths, open views of the Aznaitín and the Torres River Valley, and small archaeological milestones that explain the historical passage through these Sierra Magina looms. The itinerary begins and ends in the Gigante Pump of Torres, excellent lookout over the valley of the Torres River and the slopes of the massif, with the Aznaitín as a constant reference. From here you take the Senda del Cordel de Castellar, a narrow path that ascends continuously between Mediterranean and scattered pine. The slope is felt from the first meters, but the firm - ground with small stone - allows progress at regular pace. The rise reaches the head of the Barranco del Arroyuelo, a seasonal channel that collects the runways of these loins. The terrain softens slightly as the path advances to half the hillside, bordering the Cerro de la Vieja, between romorals, coscoja and ancient bays where cherry appears. The ascent culminates in the Portillo de la Zarzadilla, a natural step that opens a clean panorama of the Aznaitín and the piedemonte of Magina. From the hill, the route links with the Cañada del Barranco del Cordón to the Puente de la Mata, an old pecuaria route that explains the historical transit through the area. The Cerrillo del Tesoro is very close, where the remains of a fortified enclosure associated with a walled village are documented, visible from the route without any detours. The route then takes the Upper Way of Jimena, which begins a progressive and comfortable descent. This section coincides with the C5 cycling route to the village entrance. The landscape opens between olive groves and cherry benches, overlooking the Torres River Valley and the Serrezuela by closing the horizon, until again reaching the first houses of Torres and closing the circuit in the Gigante Pump. General recommendations Check the weather before departure, especially on windy days on the Portillo. Wear shoes with good grip for the tracks and loose stone, and carry enough water. The initial rise requires a constant rhythm; the descent is comfortable and suitable to finish the route without overloading the legs.
Breve descripción

Ravine ofl Gargantón

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
RUT-0006
Descripción larga
Short and very nice route that follows the course of the Garganton River between pinars and limestone slopes, with return by a traditional acequia still in use. A fresh and serene tour, where the water marks the pace and alternates riverside sections with views towards the valley and the summits of Sierra Magina. The itinerary begins next to the Garganton bridge, on the local road, and begins with a short climb per track that allows you to gain perspective over the valley. The lane is soon abandoned to take a halfway path, from which views are opened towards the Gate of Magina and the high summits, with Miramundos as a reference. The path descends to reach the way of the Garganton River, which from here guides the march. The route goes upstream between pinars and clear slopes, crossing the stream through small wooden walkways that facilitate the passage and provide a friendly character to the tour. The valley fits, the environment becomes damp and the rumor of water accompanies every step. The central point of the itinerary is the Birth of the Garganton River, where the water flows directly from the limestone, forms a short poza and is channelled down valley. This spring feeds the traditional acequia that irrigates the gardens of Bélmez de la Moraleda, a hydraulic system of historical origin that remains active and constitutes a cultural and landscape heritage of great value. From birth, the route returns along the path of the waterfall, always in gentle descent. The route runs along the left side of the valley, between orchards and olive groves, offering a clear reading of the traditional agricultural landscape and the sustainable use of water. Finally, the itinerary links with the main path of the Garganton and returns to the starting point, closing a balanced journey between water, riverside and panoramic of Magina. General recommendations Route suitable for all people used to walking. See the weather, especially after rain, when the flow can increase. Use shoes with good grip in wet sections and respect the waterfalls and walkways, avoiding stepping on the margins so as not to damage this fragile hydraulic heritage.
Breve descripción
Short and very nice route that runs through the Garganton ravine following the course of the river and its traditional waterfalls. From the parking lot next to the bridge, the track is transformed into a riverside path that crosses several times the channel between chopos and gardens until it reaches the birth of the river. The return takes place on the way of service of the acequia, overlooking the slopes of Magina and the gardens of Bélmez de la Moraleda.

Recreational Area Río Cuadros – Caño del Aguadero

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
RUT-0005
Descripción larga
A serene and balanced route that runs through one of the most unique river landscapes of Sierra Mágina, from the south of the Cuadros River to the Caño del Aguadero, then to Búlmez de la Moraleda. A itinerary where water, geology and rural memory are combined in a comfortable layout, designed to enjoy without haste. The tour begins in the Recreative Area of the River Cuadros, in the surroundings of Bedmar, entrance door to an exceptional thinning, one of the best preserved and most extensive of the southern peninsular. From the first steps, the path runs next to the channel, between walkways, limestone slopes and riverside shade, with the constant rumor of water marking the rhythm. The route gently ascends through the valley following the main route, shared in the start with the C5 cycloturist route, while the river accompanies between galleries of adelfas, willows and fig trees. The landscape reveals its fluviokarctic character: limestone walls, rocky highlights and small throats modeled by the discharge of the Cárceles-Carluca aquifer, which feeds the springs of the area. The central point of the itinerary is the Caño del Aguadero, a cold and constant spring that sprouts at the foot of the limestone and gives life to the valley even in the driest months. It is an ideal place to stop, read the landscape and recognize the peaks of Magina that are cut on the horizon. From here, the route changes from the side to the Garganton Valley, starting a progressive descent with open views of olive groves and pine trees. Before reaching Bélmez, a short detour allows you to look at the hill of the Torre del Lucero, an ancient medieval atalaya that watched the steps of the Jandulilla and maintained visual contact with the castle of Bélmez de la Moraleda. The final section descends through clear paths between burning and open lomas until entering the urban centre, where the route ends. It is a tour that invites you to understand how the water structure the territory, from the saw to the gardens, and to walk calmly through a living and worked landscape for centuries. General recommendations Route suitable for walking trails. See the weather, especially after rain, when springs can increase their flow. Use shoes with good grip in wet sections and respect the riverside environment and springs, avoiding getting out of the trail. It has enough water, although you will find seasonal sources on the tour.
Breve descripción

Recreational Area Fuenmaandor – Albanchez de Mágina

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
RUT-0004
Descripción larga
A linear and varied route linking water, forest and height from the recreational area of Fuenmayor to Albanchez de Magina. A very grateful tour, with pinars, rails and open views, which changes considerably according to the season and encourages it to be repeated at different times of the year. The itinerary begins in the recreational area of Fuenmayor, a fresh and dark environment marked by the constant presence of water. From the parking lot and the fountain is taken a compact ground track that gently ascends between pine trees, with progressive views over Torres and a rosary of Sierra Magina summits, including the Aznaitín and the Almadén. Soon after, the tour approaches the Zurreon Cascade, an intermittent jump where the water covers the rock with delicate travertine. Although the spring is permanent, the waterfall appears after abundant rains and, in cold winters, can become cold, offering a unique picture. The road continues along the path of the GR-7, sharing a corridor with old fallow tracks that have historically articulated the transit along these slopes. The ascent continues to reach the Nita Fountain, a spring attached to the foot of the hillside, a good point for a pause and to read the landscape: the Torres Valley, the Lomas of La Loma, the traces of loose stone of the Almadén and the summits that close the horizon. From here, the route leaves the main track to enter the Barrio de la Víbora, where a narrow and stony path goes back between pine and clear limestone. The rise culminates in the Collado de la Vibora, turning point of the journey. From here on, the itinerary begins a descent by a cattle foyer - the tranche of the pecuary track of the Cordel de la Sierra to the Abradero del Espino - which leads to the area of Las Hoyas. The limestone is in open steps and loins, with a prominent presence of cornicabra, which in the autumn is dyed with red shades. There are also remains of ancient huts, a testimony of the traditional use of this high. The final section runs between olive groves, alternating paths and barbed tracks that are right across the local road before gently descending to the vicinity of Albanchez de Magina, where the route ends. General recommendations Check the meteorology before starting the route, especially in the collate and stony down sections. Wear mountain shoes with good grip; the sticks are appreciated on the down from the Collado de la Viper. It takes enough water and extreme caution when crossing local roads.
Breve descripción
This route from Fuenmayor offers a short but complete route, where water, forest and height mark the way. Part in the shadow of Fuenmajor, with the water marking the compass of the march. Soon the rock is dressed in lime in the Zurreon and the air is fresh; it is the prelude of a sidewalk that goes back among pine trees until the Víbora hill, where the limestone opens and the cornicabra ignites the red umbria when autumn comes. From there, we let the loin release us to Las Hoyas, more kind, and let the cattle feral take us between olive groves, without haste, to Albanchez de Magina. It is a short and complete tour (water, forest and height) that invites you to repeat it at another station, when the mountain changes skin and each step counts something different.

Recreational Area El Peralejo – Pico Mágina - Miramundos (R6)

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
RUT-0003
Descripción larga
Classical and demanding Ascension to the Pico Magina, roof of the province of Jaén, with extension to the nearby Miramundos. A high mountain route that links lapiaces, crest and umberies, with traces of serrano trades (tinadas, neveros, old paths) and a final panorama of enormous amplitude. Hard, yes; also fully rewarding. The route starts next to the Visitors Center of Mata Bejid (El Peralejo Recreative Area), passing through a Mediterranean landscape of bushes, oaks and pine that soon takes on serrano character. In the first compasses there are points linked to the traditional use of the mountain, such as forklifts and livestock structures, before linking with tracks and beamed paths that gradually gain height. As the ascent progresses, the itinerary reaches milestones such as the Tiny of the Cañada de las Cruces, where the land opens in a heap of pastures and the great summit string is beginning to be clearly read: the Peña de Jaén and, later, the relief of Miramundos. From here, the track is lost and gives way to a more mountainous path: the firm becomes stony, there are limestone boats and loose stone sections that require attention. The atmosphere changes to the high mountain, with very marked karmic forms and vegetation adapted to the cold and wind. In the bifurcation area, the road allows to link the two main tops of the route. The rise to the Pico Magina (2.165 m) culminates in the geodetic vertex, with views covering a wide mosaic of saws and valleys. A snowpit (snow well), fragile vestige of ancient mountain-taking, is located very close. The detour to Miramundos (2.077 m) adds a section of windy and panoramic crest, with a stone shelter that offers shelter when time changes and a complete reading of the karmic relief: dolins, canchales and lapiaces. After the visit to Miramundos, the itinerary returns to the main route and descends on the same route, returning to the pinars and, finally, to the surroundings of the recreational area, where the water and the shadows close the day. General recommendations A demanding and mountain-friendly route: see the weather (wind, cold and sudden changes), wear coat clothes by layers and sufficient water. The essential mountain footwear; in sections of loose and lapiaz stone a firm and unhurried step should be taken. Respect the signage and avoid getting out of the trail in areas with sensitive flora. In fragile elements such as neveros or ruins, it observes without access to or stepping on unstable structures.
Breve descripción
High mountain route that part of the El Peralejo Recreative Area and the Mata Bejid Visitors Center, ascends by tracks and trails between pine trees and old livestock elements (chozones, tinadas) to the Cañada de las Cruces and the upper hill. From there it continues by ventilated looms and karmic terrain to the geodetic vertex of Magina (2,165 m) and the Miramundos shelter, with spectacular views, to return on the same itinerary to the point of beginning.

Recreational Area El Peralejo – Recreational Area Fuenmaandor

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
RUT-0002
Descripción larga
A linear and very complete route in the heart of Sierra Magina that links livestock memory, height dehesa and water. A serene tour, with progressive rise to the Puerto de la Mata and a fresh descent through umbria and springs, ideal for enjoying the landscape without haste. The itinerary begins in the surroundings of Mata Bejid, next to the Recreative Area of El Peralejo, in a landscape of oaks, complaints and young pine. From the beginning there are the traces of the traditional use of the mountain: bozos of pastors, ancient horseshoe roads and small mallads that accompany the smooth rise on half the hill. The sidewalk unabruptly ascends at the foot of the limestone walls where today a ferrata track has been equipped, and it is exposed to the Cave of the Solana, small karmic coat excavated in the limestone, surrounded by lapiaces and dissolving fissures characteristic of the Magina relief. The road then links with a forest track leading to the Castlejo de Mata Bejid, remains of a medieval fortification that watched the passage between the countryside and the high umbria of the saw. This stretch crosses a dehesa of rare height, with oaks and complaints scattered over mountain pastures, a unique landscape at these levels. From here, the route continues to Los Prados, where a rezume feeds the Fountain of Los Prados, before facing the final ascent to the Port of the Mata, which marks the change of aspect. After the port, the route goes down the northern, cooler and more dark side. The pinar is closed, seasonal eruptions such as Hoya Lino appear and the environment becomes clearly wet. In the final section, the road approaches again the Zur-reon, whose jump can be shown after abundant rains, and the constant rumor of the spring accompanies the last steps to the Recreative Area of Fuenmayor, where the route ends. It is an itinerary that combines history, forest landscape and water, very grateful to travel it calmly and discover how the saw changes to every kilometer. General recommendations See the weather, especially in the surroundings of the Puerto de la Mata. Use mountain shoes with good grip; the sticks can be useful in the descent. It carries sufficient water and extreme caution in sections of track with loose stone and in humid areas close to springs.
Breve descripción
Linear route connecting two classic Sierra Magina enclaves: the El Peralejo Recreative Area and the Fuenmayor Recreative Area. The itinerary ascends between oak and pine trees towards the upper side of Magina, passing next to the Cortijo del Peralejo and the Cueva de la Solana, and offering views over Mata Bejid and the limestone walls of the saw. After coronating the upper area, the road descends to the valley of the Zurreon and ends in the spring and the shadows of Fuenmayor.

Albanchez de Mágina – Cima del Aznaitín

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
RUT-0001
Descripción larga
Direct climb from Albanchez de Magina to one of the most emblematic summits of Sierra Magina. A short but demanding rise, by mixed firm, that combines traces of the serrana life and a wide panoramic end. The route proposes a direct rise from Albanchez de Magina to the top of the Aznaitín (1,745 m), on a path of rise by initial asphalt, forest track and stony path. The itinerary starts next to the City Hall and gains height on the street of Ohorno between houses set to the exit of the village and facing the north-east side of the saw. As it rises, the landscape becomes more austere and clearly mountainous. The slope is constant and the gap is concentrated within a few kilometres, so it is appropriate to maintain a regular pace. In the middle section are the first testimonies of traditional life in height: the remains of a snow well, used for the collection and transport of ice between the 18th and 19th centuries, and the ruins of a shack of pastors, simple dry stone constructions linked to the grazing and the development of the saw. The final stretch leaves the track to take a clear path that gains height with decision between stone and limestone, until reaching the summit of the Aznaitín, a true natural balcony. From here, the views open in all directions: the heart of Sierra Magina, the region of La Loma and the Guadalquivir valley, the dark line of Sierra Morena, the saws of Cazorla and Las Villas and the summits of the Sierra Sur. A complete lookout that rewards the effort of promotion. The route ends at the top, returning on the same itinerary. General recommendations Recommended route for well-formed trails. Check the weather before the exit, use mountain shoes with good grip and the use of sticks in the strands of strong slope and pedestal is recommended. It has enough water and prevents ascension in extreme heat or strong wind.
Breve descripción
A round-trip Itinerary that ascends from the urban centre of Albanchez de Magina to the top of the Aznaitín (1,745 m). The tour combines a forest track and an increasingly stony mountain path, with continuous slopes that require good physical form and regular passage.

Descripción larga

The track runs on the northwest face of Mount Bucentaina. When we have been walking for about 20 minutes we will reach the source of the Noguerón, from which there is plenty of water. In this place, the path PR-A 175 is separated by a path to the left. We're still on the main road.

At first we will see the mountains and olive groves around Siles, and then enter the forest. It is one of the best pineapples of carrasco pine the Natural Park. Just as the village of Puentehonda appears before us, we see on the left, on the same road, two gigantic and venerable specimens of carrasco pine, which are included in the Inventory of Singular Trees of Andalusia with the names of Pino de los Barrilos de Puentehonda and Pino del Cerro Bucentaina and respectively. The latter is 32 m high and 4.5 m in diameter at its base.

We will also find in our way an indication to go up a narrow and steep path to the remains of the castle of Puentehonda, whose ruins, corresponding to two towers, are half hidden in the thickness of the forest.

The village of Puentehonda, at the foot of the Peñalta, has a small recreational area with a fountain in which it is worth resting. The way back and forth, doing so quietly, will take about four hours.

Breve descripción

This route, of just under 5 km, runs along a narrow forest track that we recommend to walk. Its main attraction is the carrasco pine forest that crosses, under which grows a closed forest of oak, madroños and doves. The first kilometer is quite steep, but the rest is barely at a level. To reach the village of Puentehonda it is enough to follow the track, without taking any detour, until it ends up in another of greater width. The other side of the village is the village.
