Walking in the Lorca countryside, the Cabezo del Carretón route around the village of Coy
A family-friendly 6.8-kilometre route in Lorca which reaches 931 metres above sea level
This family-friendly walking route is based in the village of Coy, one of the furthest north in the huge municipality of Lorca and is at about 850 metres above sea level on the southern slopes of the Sierra de la Lavia next to the source of a natural spring. This is an area of deep-rooted traditions including the creation of brightly coloured “jarapa” rugs and carpets and various meat products.
The walk begins in the Plaza de Casa Granda in the village, alongside the hostel of the same name, and passes the baroque church of San José and the artificial riverside beach of Coy before following a tarmacked road for 2.5 kilometres. At this point an earthen track leads off to the left towards the hill of El Cerro del Carretón (931m above sea level), where there are lovely views out over the village.
From here the descent back into the village begins, taking walkers through crop fields and almond orchards, completing a distance of 6.8 kilometres without any great climbs or descents in an area of natural beauty.
