Sendas Tradicionales.

From the starting point you walk to the Casa de Coco (or botanical house). The various Sendas Tradicionales depart from here. This walking route follows the red route, “Camí del Cocó to Olta”. First via a dry river bed and level footpaths, and beyond the main road, via a climbing footpath in the forest to the parking, picnic and camping area. From here you follow the yellow-white arrows and the signs Cim de Olta. Via a wide and later narrow hiking trail you arrive at a very steep uphill section. At the top of the plateau it gradually goes up to the top of the Olta. At the top you have a beautiful view of the various mountain peaks in the area such as Puig Campana, the Bernia and the Montgo. You go back in the direction of La Vella Ermita. From the hermitage you descend further to the starting point.
