One of the roads that takes you to the meanders that the Río Cabriel has created in this border area between Albacete and Valencia.

Finca de los Morrones

Highlight • Structure

At this point, you'll pass through a private estate with a large house. We didn't see any gates or doors blocking your way, but it's best to be careful in case a guard dog comes out.

Los Cárceles Village

Highlight • Settlement

The cycling adventure leaves Los Cárceles along the river plain, passes the Barranco de la Vida and goes up a forest track for a few kilometers to avoid the narrowest meanders of the canyon. In this section there are paths near the shore of the Cabriel, marked with the GR-66 signs, but some are not cyclable for gravel bicycles and it is more convenient to go around the mountain. The climb is about four kilometers, to the agricultural fields of Los Armalletes, then the route takes a forest track to the right and goes down to Venta de Vadocañas, one of the historic passes between La Mancha and Valencia. The other was the Pajazo bridge, which is now submerged in the waters of the Contreras reservoir. The Vadocañas bridge is monumental, it has an eye of 33 light meters and shows an extraordinary work of ashlar masonry, the origin is Roman, although the current construction is from the 16th century. “Cars and people pass by. The eye has one hundred and twenty feet in a very long hole. They claim to be the largest and best and with the largest and largest stones in the kingdom, and they pass beasts, and everything else, from Toledo and other parts to Valencia and Requena where the customs is. On the Valencian shore there are signs for the Turia-Cabriel Nature Trail towards Villargordo del Cabriel. The climb is long, you have to climb again to the agricultural fields of La Plana along the rugged slopes of the Sierra del Rubial, it is a good time to see mountain goats, deer and wild boar. On Mount Moluengo there is a non-cyclable section, known as Senda de la Cueva de los Ladrones, and before arriving there is a detour on the left that crosses the mountain range along a forest track with good cyclability and connects with the Nature Trail in the ravine. from Los Pocicos, following the red milestones until the end of the stage between the vineyards of Villargordo del Cabriel.
