MAS DE LA CARRASCA; BUDAS AND OMBRÍA DE LOS CASTELLETS

Hi guys, let's continue discovering Marina Baixa...

In this route some friends have joined us to spend the morning doing what we like...

We've started on the main roundabout in Finestrat (we have started others routes on this place before). From here we've left to Castellets, a well-known place to connect other trails. Here it comes the new part of today's route.

It consists in a loop that takes us to visit "Mas de la Carrasca", an old hamlet where all the bikers stop to re-energize ourselves and to look at the incredible landscape

We continue to a place known as "Helipuerto", just on top of an area named among bikers as "Budistas" due to a buddhist community established there. But to get there we've to cross a mountain pass with our bicycle on our back...

It's not so bad as it seems. From here we've awesome views of the entire valley, even "Cabeçó d'or mountain" and others...

Once we've crossed that, we face a very fast descent going through "Budistas" to arrive to the "Font del Morer", a charming place where to stop simply to enjoy it. On this occasion without any water, although usually flows abundantly.

The loop finishes very close to this point, and the rest of the route has been described in other routes in this blog. Mainly there's only left the "Ombría de los Castellets" path and other pathes close to the "Rio Anchero" where we say goodbye.

A picture with all the bikers and another one from the complete track are below.
