Panoramic tour of the north of Sierra Magina with start and end in Fuenmayor. A complete and very scenic layout, which combines asphalt and track sections with long ascends to high balconies such as Mojón Blanco and Peña del Águila, and a more friendly return linking cores with services such as Mancha Real and Pegalajar. Ideal for mixed audience looking for viewpoints, water and rural landscape by pedal. The route starts in the fresh environment of the Recreative Area of Fuenmayor, with the rumor of the spring marking the beginning. From here, it is on a progressive rise towards Navaparís, a stretch that leaves behind olive groves and banks - with the presence of cherry trees in the area - and is gaining a serrano atmosphere. As the route goes up, the landscape moves to oak and whine spots, and traditional water points such as the Navaparís Fountain and the Fountain of Uncle Mouse appear, historically linked to the passage of pastors and walkers. The stretch of height leads to Mojón Blanco, geodetic vertex and clear reference on the route, and continues to the Peña del Águila, one of those viewpoints that justify the effort: to the north the countryside and the villages of the mountain edge are opened; to the south the mountain alignment of Magina is cut. From there, the tour goes comfortably to Mancha Real, a good point for a pause and services, before continuing to Pegalajar. - In the sector of Pegalajar, the route adds up to a very territorial component: the Charca de Pegalajar as an icon of the water in the landscape, and the transition to rural roads and livestock roads leading to the Abradero de Villanueva, an enclave of strong livestock tradition. From here on, the itinerary again gains height in the direction of Mata Bejid, linking with shared sections with other routes of the intermodal system and passing through heritage references such as the Castle of Mata Bejid and its dehesas and pastures environment. The return is resolved by tracks and half-mountain roads that lead back to the Fuenmayor area, with the option to approach (according to signs) the surroundings of the Cascade del Zurreón, before closing the circuit in the recreational area. The result is a round route: glances, dehesa, water and villages, on a varied and very representative pedal day in northern Magina. General recommendations Recommended route for cyclists with a certain custom to long climbs. Check the weather: in the heights there may be wind and sudden changes. Attention to sections of zahorra / track with loose or firm irregular gravel and to sectors marked with the presence of cattle (respect fences and local rules). It has sufficient water and plans stops in cores with services (Real, Pegalajar).

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.

A linear route of 3.68 km that connects the ciclable C7 with the municipality of Larva, by a 100% asphalt route, with soft levels and very accessible character. It is a short tour, ideal as a link section within the cycloturist network or as a quiet exit to discover the open landscape of the eastern sector of Sierra Magina. The route starts on the JV-3213 road, next to the bridge over the railway tracks, and is heading north towards Larva. The first meters run parallel to the railway line, accompanied by a carrasco pinar that brings shade and freshness. In this section you will travel through the Cordel del Camino de Ubeda to Cabra, an old pecuaria road that adds a clear historical and ethnographic value to the journey. As you advance, the landscape opens between splits and olive groves, with constant views of Sierra Magina on the left and the hills of the Sierra de Larva on the right. After passing by the Cortijo de San Pedro, a living example of the olive culture, the tour gains visual amplitude: the olive sea of La Loma appears and, at the bottom, the summits of the Sierra de Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas. In the final section, after leaving behind the Cortijo de Caro, the slope gradually increases and the ascent to Larva begins, with wide panoramic views of the Jiennense olive and the reliefs that close the horizon. The route concludes in Larva, a quiet village that invites you to walk and complete the day with a visit to its natural environment, such as the La Cañada area. General recommendations Route suitable for all types of public and road or gravel bicycles. Caution at the beginning, next to the JV-3213. On hot days, the shadow is limited outside the initial pinar. It is recommended to bring sufficient water and always respect the rural environment and the livestock routes.

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.

Cerro Golondrina is a rock formation located at the foot of the Sierra Magina Natural Park, a few kilometres from Jódar and Bedmar. It stands out for its vertical plates full of holes, its open environment and its wide views over the environment, making it one of the most unique climbing areas of the region. It is a school of a sports and classic character, with demanding ways both technical and psychological, where a correct reading of the terrain is essential. The rock, of high quality in general, has in some sections sharp and safer edges more distanced on the older routes, which reinforces its character of compromised escalation. Sector Country: The Country Sector is the main sector of Cerro Golondrina. It was equipped in 2012 by Carlos del Campo and has about 20 tracks, mostly of sports climbing, although it also has classic tours. The tracks are developed on vertical hole plates, with technical climbing and maintenance. Due to the length of some routes and the distance between insurance on certain routes, the use of 80-meter rope is recommended for greater safety. Representative routes: Extreme Ubeda (6c +) Sefarad (V +) Knives (6b) Lala (6c) The sector also includes classic routes, such as the main Spolon, with a tour of approximately 100 meters, which provides a more alpine character to the area. Access The access is made by road to Mancha Real, then continued by the A-320. After passing Bedmar, it is linked with the A-401 in the direction of Huelma. At about 500 meters, you can park to the right in a small rest area located next to the entrance to an unobvious track. From the parking lot, the road is crossed and raised directly to the base of the walls, reaching the first tracks in approximately 10 minutes on foot. Orientation and recommended time The main direction of the hill is south-west, although there are sectors with north-west orientation. These features allow you to climb in spring and autumn as the best times, although the area can be practical for much of the year by selecting the tracks and the time.

The Escalada del Castillo de la Guardia is a small, unfrequented school, located just under the walls of the rosé on which the castle of the town is located. Its proximity to the urban core and its historical environment give it a unique character, ideal for quiet and unmassified climates. It is a sports climbing sector, with long, well-defined routes and on limestone. Although the number of tracks is small, the school is interesting for the variety of degrees and their orientation. The sector has a total of 9 ways, with difficulties ranging from V to 7b, predominating the fifths and sexts, which makes it suitable for both intermediate climbers and for those who seek a comfortable day near the village. Highlights: Spolon (V +) Le Petit Verdon (V +) Land as you can (6a) What a club (6c) Access Access is made directly through the town centre of La Guardia, reaching the vicinity of the castle. From the village, the walls are visible and the base of the sector is reached in a few minutes on foot. Orientation and recommended time The overall orientation of the sector allows to climb for much of the year, being especially pleasant in spring and autumn, when the thermal conditions are softer.

Circular Itinerary of about 56 km that leaves and returns to Cambil, linking some of the most representative landscapes and nuclei in the western sector of Sierra Magina. It combines comfortable asphalt, sections between olive groves and steps through water and heritage enclaves such as Mata Bejid, Huelma and Arbuniel. A balanced route, designed to enjoy the landscape, villages and recreational areas, with progressive levels and good pedal rhythm. The route begins in Cambil, a serrano municipality with a marked historical character, from where the A-324 is taken towards Huelma. The first kilometers advance between olive lomas and limestone reliefs that announce the saw, with open views and a fluid pedal. Soon the surroundings of Mata Bejid, home and place are very linked to the rural memory of Magina, where the hermitage, the fountain and the silence of the mountain invite a brief pause. The Mata Bejid Visitors' Center and the Peralejo Recreative Area are located very close to the site, which is a real entrance door to the heart of the massif. This section concentrates several values of the territory: well-preserved public mountain, pine trees, oak trees and the connection with larger trails. The tour continues to the area of the Fuensanta, where the hermitage and its natural environment reinforce the cultural and devotional character of the saw, before reaching the Fuente de la Teja, with its old restored washers, one of the most grateful points to stop. The arrival in Huelma provides services and heritage: castle, church and urban parks mark a change of pace before leaving the core for the JA-4204 heading to Arbuniel. The route runs between olive groves and fields of cultivation, following a more open and agricultural landscape until the detour to Arbuniel, where water is once again a protagonist. The birth of the Arbuniel River and its recreational area, with acequias, shadow and constant rumor, offer one of the most fresh and unique enclaves of the entire route. From Arbuniel, the return to Cambil is done by linking local roads and steps under the A-44, with wide views of the mountains that close the valley and a comfortable profile that allows to enjoy the final pedal. The circuit is closed again in Cambil, completing a varied day that sums up well the relationship between water, olive, saw and villages in this sector of Magina. General recommendations Suitable route for road cycling and light gravel. See the weather, especially in summer, and plan stops in Huelma and Arbuniel for avituallation. Attention at the crosses with the A-44 and the N-323a and respect the signage. It has enough water, although you will find sources and recreational areas along the route. Ideal to enjoy without haste, combining pedal and small cultural stops.

Circular route of about 63 km that connects Cabra del Santo Cristo with the station of Huesa and Alicún of Ortega, along the eastern sector of Sierra Mágina. The itinerary combines railway heritage, agricultural landscapes and some of the most unique reliefs of the region, such as the badlands and cascades of Alicún. It is an accessible and very contrasting proposal, where the reading of the territory - rail, spartum, olive and erosion - accompanies each section. The route starts in the Municipal Park of Cabra del Santo Cristo and gains height gently to the Mirador de Cabra, the first balcony of the route, from which the transition between the olive countryside and the foothills of Sierra Magina is recognized. From here, the route descends to the Salado stream, rolling in parallel to the railway track, which acts as the driving thread of the landscape. In this sector there are the first contrasts: very eroded white soils, attached rambles and repopulation pines that soften the aridity. Before arriving at the station of Huesa, it is worth the detour to the ravine of the nuns, where an interesting set of houses is preserved - cave linked to the exploitation of the spartum and to the railway history of the late 19th and early 20th century. The station, opened in 1898, is a good place to stop and understand the importance of the train in the articulation of this territory. From Huesa, the route is directed south and south-west, through a more open landscape dominated by olive groves and dehesas. In this section we still see the traces of the 2015 fire in the Peña del Cambrón, now in the process of natural regeneration and repopulation. The relief is gently waved until, as it approaches Alicún de Ortega, the landscape changes radically. The access to Alicún runs between badlands and cascades, one of the most striking geomorphological sets in the province: hillsides surrounded by erosion, deep rambles and abrupt profiles that offer a very different visual experience than that of the serrano olive tree. After reaching the surroundings of Alicún de Ortega, the route turns back to the west, maintaining a comfortable pedal between cultivated and empty lomas where the riverside vegetation reappears. The return reaches the Cabra Station of the Holy Christ, another relevant railway enclave. From here there is the option of a short detour to visit the Milenaria Encine, a unique example for its size and longevity. The last section runs by local road between olive groves, already in a soft profile, until they return to the urban centre of Cabra del Santo Cristo, where the routes C6 and C7 are combined and the circuit is closed. General recommendations Road suitable for road cycling and light gravel, suitable for mixed public with a certain physical base for its mileage. It is necessary to protect from the sun in the open sections and in the Badlands area, where the shadow is scarce. It carries sufficient water between stations and villages, and extreme caution in crosses with local roads and in the railway diversions. Respects fragile environments (cascades, casas- cave) and always stay in the signposted layout.

Circular route of about 50 km that runs through the Jandulilla valley from Bélmez de la Moraleda to Cabra del Santo Cristo and Solera, alternating olive slopes, pine trees and limestone reliefs. It is an accessible route, with moderate slopes and comfortable descents, with a firm majority asphalt. It stands out for its clear reading of the territory: valley water, panoramic balconies and a very visible heritage (hermitage, lookout and castle), with the option of looking at the ibera footprint of the Cortijo del Pajarillo. The route begins in Bélmez de la Moraleda, leaving on local roads between olive groves and small loins that soon open their eyes to the saws that close the Jandulilla corridor. In the first kilometers there is the possibility of a (non-compulsory) detour to the castle of Bélmez and the caves of Baltibañas, before continuing to the valley. The itinerary gains character by joining the corridor of the Jandulilla River, where the landscape becomes more serrano: the olive tree is mixed with pinars and limestone florings. After crossing the river, the route begins a progressive rise to Cabra del Santo Cristo, with a change of tone that announces the transition to drier landscapes. In this section stands the Hermitage of the Holy Christ of Burgos, a good point for a short stop, and later the Mirador de Cabra, from which is recognized the southern façade of Sierra Magina and the saws that open to the east. The arrival in Cabra del Santo Cristo allows to regroup and avituallar in an urban environment with services. On the way out, the tour continues on local roads between olive lomas and small hills, with comfortable pedal and good views. On the way there is a detour to the Casa de la Pradera, a useful point for cyclists for their equipment linked to the maintenance and cleaning of bicycles. The stretch towards Solera returns the protagonism to the relief: the pedany is located at the foot of Mount Morron, with the Castle of Solera dominating the landscape as a visual milestone. Very close, a lookout allows to expand the panorama over the valley and the alignment of Magina. From here, the route returns to the Jandulilla corridor and links back to the road back to Belgium. In this sector, the Iberian Sanctuary of the Cortijo del Pajarillo is close, a reminder of the historical depth of the territory (visitable according to access and conditions of the moment). The circuit is closed again in Bélmez de la Moraleda, with a comfortable ending that invites you to finish the day by walking through the city centre. General recommendations A path suitable for mixed audiences with minimal experience in medium exits. See weather and wind, especially in open and looking areas. Attention to links and main road crossings; always in line and with visible elements. It has enough water and takes advantage of stops in Cabra del Santo Cristo and Solera to rest. In sensitive enclaves (caves / archeology), it respects signs and prevents access to unconditioned areas.

A circuit of about 80 km that connects Bedmar with Jódar, Alto Guadalquivir and the Renaissance cities of Ubeda and Baeza, before returning to the starting point. The itinerary combines local roads, agricultural roads and bici lanes, with moderate ascends, a firm majority asphalt and a clear reading of the territory: river valley, olive countryside and historical heritage. It is a varied and very complete proposal, ideal for road cycling and light gravel. The route begins in Bedmar, heading north on the JV-3032 between olive groves, with early views of the Serrezuela de Bedmar and the Sierra Magina summits. The passage through the Lavadero de Bedmar recalls the historic relationship of the municipality with the water before leaving the asphalt to take compact tracks towards Salmerón and the Lavaderos de la Fuente Garciez, a good place to make a first stop. The entrance to Jódar marks the transit to the Guadalquivir valley. After crossing the urban centre, the route is heading east, alternating agricultural roads and road sections to reach the vicinity of the river. The crossing of the Puente de Ubeda la Vieja is one of the main points of the tour: here the Guadalquivir appears as the central axis of the landscape, accompanied by the view of Iltiraka and the ruins of Ubeda la Vieja, which provide a historical dimension to the itinerary. Very close, the detour to the Laguna de la Herradura allows you to discover a small wet area of great environmental value. From the valley, the tour gradually gains height in the direction of Ubeda, crossing the La Loma countryside, an infinite sea of olive groves on soft wavy hills. The arrival in this city, declared World Heritage, invites a longer stop to discover its historic centre and to regain strength. The route continues to Baeza by a bike lane parallel to the A-316, a comfortable and secure stretch that connects two of the most important Renaissance assemblies of Andalusia. After leaving Baeza behind, the tour is back towards the south, crossing the Guadalquivir along the Mazuecos bridge, a masterpiece of Renaissance engineering, and returning to the Bedmar Valley. The final part is between olive groves and small runoff barrels, with the possibility of a brief detour to the Cerro de Fique to enjoy a wider view of the Serrezuela and the mountain alignations of Sierra Magina. The return to Bedmar ends a long but balanced route, in which river landscape, countryside and urban heritage occur in a harmonious way. General recommendations Road and gravel bike-suitable route, with considerable mileage that requires good schedule planning and avitualations (Jódar, Ubeda and Baeza are key points for this). In summer it is recommended to avoid the central hours of the day due to the shortage of shade in the countryside. Pay attention to the crossings with communal roads and always respect the signposted route, especially in the river and agricultural areas.
