Time: Three hours.
This route has great historic, artistic and cultural interest, since it
makes its way through the beautiful historic towns of Segura de la Sierra
and Orcera. Leaving Orvera to Segura there is a local road 6 km. long
which makes its way through the mountain among the well-known olive trees
in Jaén and crossing an upheaval on the ground of about 300 m.
Then we shall find a junction which we shall take to the left towards
Segura town with its castle on top.
After this compelling visit we must make our way to Siles, watching on
our right the impressive view of the river Trujala´s gorges, many
metres below us, where we can accede after walking on down numerous steep
lanes.
Then we shall continue our walking tour, looking back from now on in order
to see the beautiful view of Segura town and its castle, until arriving
at a crossroads which we shall take to the right among pine trees until
reaching another crossroads which again we must take to the right. After
arriving at a natural source of rich water and opposite Navalcaballo´s
forest house there is splendid green pine grove.
