  • DISTANCE: 21.8 kms
  • DIFFICULTY: Media. Si bien la primera parte del recorrido atraviesa zonas pobladas en las que hay todo tipo de servicios, a partir de Jedey el camino discurre por entornos muchos más solitarios. Se han de tomar las debidas precauciones y llevar provisiones de agua y comida. A tener en cuenta que la tónica general de todo el camino es ascendente.
