Walking in the Lorca countryside, the Rambla de Las Calaveras route in Avilés
A family-friendly 5-kilometre route in the Tierras Altas area of the vast municipality of Lorca
This is a 5-kilometre walk in the environs of Áviles, a small village in the Tierras Altas area of the vast municipality of Lorca, which usually takes around 1 hour 15 minutes and is classified as being of level of difficulty 1, making it an ideal one for families with children.
The route starts at the church of San Nicolás de Bari along Calle del Pardo, and on reaching El Pardo (a cluster of a few houses just outside the village) follows the Rambla de las Calaveras to the right of the houses. Continue along the rambla until kilometre 1.3, where you leave o non a path to the right which winds through pine trees for just over a kilometre to another path, which runs downhill through pine and almond groves on the left.
After three kilometres the path joins another one on the right, which you follow to El Pardo and then returns to the starting point.
There is little climbing on this route and the path is in good condition except for around 500 metres at the end of the rambla: a nice walk through nature with pleasing views!
