Meeting Point

& Directions

 From Jalon –  Turn RIGHT at the traffic lights before entering Llíber and follow direction RIGHT into  the car park near the medical centre.

 

From Gata – Go through Llíber centre and at a small plaza there are directions LEFT to Farmacia and Parking. Turn LEFT here and follow the signs to parking.
Walking Route This is a circular route on the outskirts of Llíber and follows the left river bank deviating to see La Bassa de Arcs. [4km]
Terrain The route is on paths, some rocky and others concrete and pavement.
Ascent Negligible
Duration 1hr
  1. From the parking, go passed the large, grilled well on your RIGHT.
  2. Take the concrete path towards the main Llíber / Jalon road but your path goes under the road through a narrow tunnel.
  3. Shortly after, take the path off to the LEFT.
  4. Follow this until you reach a wide rocky path going off to the LEFT. This is a barranco.
  5. Follow this and take one of the narrow paths off to your RIGHT as you near the [1]main road.
  6. Follow the path through the terraces as it goes up and parallel from where you have come.
  7. If you go down a small “cobbled” ramp, you know you are in the right place and shortly thereafter you will see the arches of the C17th Bassa de Arcs – “aljibe” (cistern) that fed the vines, provided people with an ancient swimming pool and provided water for the cattle.
  8. Continue on the path passed the arches until you reach the rear of the Sports’ Centre in Jalon.
  9. Take this path circuiting the back of the courts and then LEFT to the main road.
  10. Walk a short distance along the main road and just after the bridge look for the path going RIGHT and DOWN just before a house with hanging wheels and other oddments.
  11. Take the path and follow it all the way back to the parking. About ½ way along this path you will find the Molí Llíber which is actually in Jalon but called Llíber because this town used its water.

[1] If you go as far as the main road, you have gone too far.
