Mountain bike route, with a distance of 16.6 km, that takes us from the town of Gúdar to the hermitage of Santa Quiteria, located in the beautiful Valley of Motorritas.

We set off heading east, along the road that leads to Valdelinares, to climb towards the antennas installed on the high point. As soon as we start to ascend, we find the first sign indicating that we have 6 km to the hermitage, following the PR-TE 29.

We should take these first meters calmly, as they run along a cobbled path with a steep slope. From the vicinity of the antennas, we can enjoy beautiful views of Gúdar and the surroundings.

At 1.2 km from the start, the slope begins to ease and we reach the highest point of the route (1740 m above sea level). We continue on much more favorable and relaxed terrain than at the beginning, until we reach the Pine Lentejas (3.14 km from the start). It is a large specimen of laricio pine, which is well worth a photo for the memory.

From here we begin a steep descent of 1.3 km, until we reach a junction, which we take to the left, to enter the Valley of Motorritas. A few meters from the junction, the PR-TE 29 joins the GR 199, corresponding to the Cultural Park of the Cabecero Poplar of Alto Alfambra.

The valley is filled with farmhouses (de los Charcos, de Izquierdo, etc.) and pens, with beautiful dry stone constructions, where it is worth stopping for a good while to enjoy the tranquility and the passing of a few herds of cows. Next to the hermitage, we have several tables with benches, where we can settle for a while.

From here, we return along the path we came until the junction, which this time we take to the left, to take a track that will take us down to the A-228 road. Here we will turn right, to return to Gúdar, now by road.

We take the opportunity on the way back to pass by the picnic area of los Caños de Gúdar, where a highly recommended walking route begins, which runs alongside the crystal-clear waters of the Alfambra River.

We will only have to complete the last ascent of 150 meters of elevation in less than 3 km.

A route always above 1400 m above sea level, that runs through a very beautiful environment, with many attractions to enjoy and take as a memory in our camera.
