Royal Path Route (PR-CC 15)

Description

The Royal Path Route (PR-CC 15) is a short-distance hiking trail that links Navaconcejo with the mountain village of Piornal along historic paths traditionally used for trade and communication between the valley and the highlands. The trail begins near the Jerte River at the children’s park in Navaconcejo and gradually climbs through landscapes of cherry orchards, chestnut groves and oak forests until reaching the plateau where Piornal is located. Along the route hikers pass through areas such as Cordel de Los Sotillos, La Casería and the Bohonal Gorge, where the Calderón Waterfall and the Molinos Bridge can be found. Some sections preserve the stone paving of the historic Camino de la Viña, reflecting the route’s past importance for agricultural and livestock transport.
