La Calderona track

Again we will take the Municipal Sports Center as the starting and ending point. On this route we will pass through the hamlet of El Puerto de la Encina and the return trip will be done by road. About halfway along the route we will find a fairly significant climb.

We leave the Municipal Sports Center heading towards the Saucejo highway, before the “A-92” bridge, there is an electrical station, there we turn right to enter the “Vereda de la Calderona”, we follow a long section through this path, after passing the “Arroyo del Peinado” we enter an area that is flooded and complicated in winter. We continue to link with the “Vereda de la Puebla a Cañete”, at the height of the “Cortijo de Agujetero Alto” we will turn right to enter the “Vereda de la Calderona” again.

We keep going until we reach a crossroads from where we can see the “Cortijo de la Calderona”, we will head towards it by a descent between young olive trees, we must be careful as there is a chain that crosses the road below.

We go up to the beautiful “Cortijo de la Calderona” when we pass it we will look for a route among the olive trees to enter the pine slope that reaches the “Arroyo del Término”, after passing the farmhouse and until crossing the stream we can find incictable areas and confusing.

Once we have crossed the stream, we will make a hard climb to the “Cortijo de Rejano”, and we will continue to climb until we come out on the “SE-466” road (Carretera del Pinarejo), here the proposal is to go left, at the moment we find the Port de la Encina, although you can also go to the right and go up to the Pinarejo or continue to the “Corbones Reserve” and back.

Once past the Puerto de la Encina we go down the road passing by the Cortijo del Tabaquero and later crossing again the “Arroyo del Peinado” we continue on the asphalt to return to Osuna again.
