Riu Gorgos.

The walk starts in Jalon. After crossing the Riu Gorgos, you walk alternately through the Solana urbanization, a piece of forest and another piece of urbanization upwards. Past the last houses this becomes an ascending walking path. At the top of a large plateau there is a walking path on the left to the Castell d'Aixa, an old castle ruin (follow the arrows PR CV 53). Here you can enjoy a wide panorama in the four wind directions. You walk back to the fork and then follow the road down to LLiber. There you turn to the right and follow the GR330 along the dry Riu Gorgos back to Jalon.
