SENDA COLLADO DE LOS AGUACILES

ROUTE

We start the path next to the water trough that is before reaching Peloche. After walking a few meters of asphalted section, we turn right along a track where we will walk about 700 m until we reach a fork, where we will take the right. After walking about 400 m, we will leave the path to take another path -also to the right- that ascends to the pass of the Alguaciles, going into the mountain. We climb a zigzag path up to the peak of the pass where we can see beautiful views of Herrera del Duque, Peloche and the Guadiana River. We will return to the starting point following the same way, but in reverse.
