Before you go

• No significant difficulties except those due to the length of the route and the height difference involved.
• After heavy rain, take care on the steepest sections and below cliffs: there may be damage to the trail.
• Private vehicle or car.
• All year round.
• Camino de La Faya is of sufficient entity to warrant walking its whole length. Nevertheless, the layout of the Footpath Network in this zone allows numerous path combinations and tailoring of hikes to individual requirements. The local footpaths (SL) 126 and 131 provide alternative departure and arrival points, further north, while the 123-124 and the 132 connect with the PR LP 16 and PR LP 18 respectively, allowing circuits to be done in the evergreen zone. A glance at the footpath map will be much more clarifying than any information supplied here.
