  1. To the right of the Font Jordana, about 200 metres away, there is a path that goes up to the path of the engineers, which we will take to start the route. Once on the ‘Los Ingenieros’ path, turn left and continue until you reach the path that leads to the cuckoo’s path (on the right).

We will go up the whole path until a fork, taking the path on the right that will lead us to the cuckoo’s path, so we continue to the right.

  1. We will continue along the path until we reach the crossroads of the cuckoo’s path, Ontinyent-Agres path.
  2. We do not leave the Ontinyent-Agres road, after approximately 1 km there is a detour to the right, a road that goes down to Agullent, which we will not take to continue straight on the Torrater road until we find the Alfafara road, turning to the left, towards “La Valleta de Agres-Alfafara”. This path is a continuous Zigzag, and in one of the curves there is a path on the right, which we will take.
  3. After a few metres we can see the climbing school on the right and a collapsed house. Then we will take another path on the right (well on the left and a path that we will not take). We leave the path on the right, continuing along the road until we reach an old Renfe house. There is a fountain on the right and a path on the left, under the railway bridge.
  4. Continue under the track and, turning off the path on the left, you will reach a watercourse that you will almost certainly find dry in summer. Without crossing the river, we will continue on its side, keeping it on our right. Be careful because before the end of the path, we will have to cross the river on a path that comes out on the right to finally reach the caves.
  5. To return, we take the same path until we cross the train track again. Once the water is replenished in the little fountain, we go to the path on the left that soon becomes a path. This is very steep and staggered and will lead us to the Torrater path.
  6. We will find on the left the path that goes down to the house of the Torrater, which we will not take, following straight on to the path of Agullent that we take on the left.
  7. We will go down this path for a while until the path appears with concrete, where there is a path (PR) on the right that we take, leaving the path.
  8. Following the main path marked with PR we will reach the detour (on the left) of the path that in 5 minutes will take us to the Font Jordana.
