"Route through the Sierra de Mayorales in Aguilas, sunny but cool day. The track leading up to the peak is in good condition and we see lavenders and other flowering bushes as we ascend. The day is clear and we have good views of the surroundings. From
At the top we take a path towards the southwest that winds along the crest of the mountain range towards the Cabezo de la Cruz. We found some pine trees planted by locals that served as shade when they lived and worked in this mountain range. We also see some abandoned hunting posts. Now this area is protected and the birds are the queens of the place." — franciscobirruezo • Dec 18, 2023
"I drive about 60 miles to the starting point of the route. This place is located at kilometer 7 of road RM D13 near Aguilas.
I pass by Cabezo de Los Mayorales and to the right begins a narrow path that continues southwest and goes through the crest of the Sierra. It reminds me of a roller coaster always going up and down, but walking.
There are few shadows to take refuge so I drink water frequently. Near the Cabezo de La Cruz I see some half-dead cactuses that remind me that I walk through semidesertic terrain.
I see butterflies, partridges and ocellated lizards, also beetles and other insects.
I have a long time to get home, I drive at 55 miles per hour, on the radio you hear a preacher from the Bronx talking about Jacob.
It occurs to me that the world seems small and yet it is infinite." — franciscobirruezo • Mar 9, 2019
