Chalkies Point walking and hiking route

Walk Instructions

Start Point

From reception (HPB Alfaix), walk down to the site road. Turn right towards Alfaix bridge.

1. Before the bridge turn sharp left to descend along a minor road, crossing the Rio Jauto at the concrete ford (usually dry). Continue along the road.

2. As it bends sharply to the right, cross the cleared area on the left to follow a track to the right.

3. Go left at the first fork in approximately 200 yards, then bear left to commence the ascent of the hillside. The gradient is never excessive. Passing through two farm buildings head towards the now roasted almond trees! This next section is a rough one and needs to be noted on the return route.

The views back to Alfaix and the Sierra Cabrera are excellent.

4. Reach the top of the rise at 216m. (709ft.). From this point there should be two tracks, one leading straight down and the other off to the left. At this point you need to ignore both, heading right onto an off beat track leading to the summit of the hill. Once at this vantage point take in the brilliant views of the area, looking down into Fossil Valley.

This is a good place to soak up the views.

6. Once fully satisfied, make your way carefully back to the main track, returning via the same route to HPB.
