Route PR-CC 02 - Cherry Blossom Route

Walking the route during flowering season: in late Marchand early April, we discover one of the most famous spectacles of Valle del Jerte—the cherry trees in bloom—and a national tourist attraction. But, despite theMapa route’s name, this route can be walked at any time of the year given all the attractions it offers. You won’t be disappointed

From Tornavacas, via the PR-CC 1 Carlos V and the GR 10 on its initial section, we enter the Garganta de los Infiernos Natural Reserve as far as km 8 where, at Collado de Tierra Blanca (or Collado de las Losas), we leave the PR Carlos V to descend along the road as far as Sacristán bridge, cross Los Infiernos ravine and continue along a trail as far as Los Pilones Bridge. Here we can see the reserve’s most famous attraction: Los Pilones. We ascend to the Chorrero de la Virgen waterfall viewpoint and, without leaving the road, connect with the GR 10 near Jerte. Without entering the town, the route passes near the Salmonid Reproduction Centre and takes us to the crossroads with the PR Carlos V and from there to the starting point.
