The path passes through the springs of the Júcar river, runs through the Estrecho del Infierno ravine and connects with a forest track that descends through the river basin. In the birth canyon there are sections with stones and in the rainy season it can have some flow. The water gushes out between the rocks at the exit of the gorge.

The path leaves the pine forest and enters the rocky slopes of the mid-mountain, populated by large bushes of creeping juniper. The forest clears up and increases the environmental panorama of the Serranía. The path continues its ascent up the mountainside until it culminates at the top of San Felipe Peak (1,850 m). The summit is a rocky spur with good views and some bonsai pines shaped by the mountain wind. The weather of the sierra carves curious forms in the specimens that dare to grow in the solitude of the peaks. The route continues in the same direction along the mountain range.

The Strait of San Blas is an alley of large limestone walls opened by the course of the Júcar River in the limestone wall that separates the Muela de San Felipe and the Sierra de Valdeminguete. Nearby is the San Blas Hostel, built in 1950 in a heavenly setting. The access leaves the town of Tragacete along a well indicated paved track that passes by some waterfalls and the hostel. In the car park there is a fountain and a small area with benches at the foot of the limestone walls. The trail leaves the crossroads to the left, at the entrance to the gorge, to the south. The track is marked with yellow and white markings for the PR-CU 4 trail and the PNSC-S11 milestones for the San Blas-San Felipe-Río Cuervo trail. The path on the right goes towards the source of the Júcar river and is the return route.
