The trail through the ancient juniper forest is one of the most unique spots in the Serranía del Turia. It's part of the Ruta de la Travinas (PR CV 331) and the GR 37, and allows you to walk among juniper trees (Juniperus thurifera), some of which are large and old. The terrain is gentle, making for a peaceful walk surrounded by nature. Comfortable shoes and water are recommended, as the sun can be intense in summer.

Starting point for a visit to the beautiful village of Chelva and the superb Water Route (Ruta del Agua), well signposted from the square. Despite the signs at the beginning of the circuit indicating that the route is closed, it is possible to pass through with caution.

The water route is beautiful and can be done with the family. Some parts of the trail and the riverside are still badly damaged by the Dana of October 2024, but it remains passable and beautiful. The video is here: https://youtu.be/YgxESnd14Ww

The church was built between the 17th and 18th centuries in the Mannerist and Baroque styles. Its design is inspired by the Church of the Gesù in Rome, designed by Jacopo Vignola. The building has a Latin cross plan, with side chapels and a transept inscribed in a rectangle. Its baroque bell tower and the largest dome in the region that is today the Valencian Community stand out. The interior ornamentation, the work of architect Juan Pérez Castiel, is magnificent and characteristic of its style. This church, declared a Site of Cultural Interest, is a treasure that deserves to be visited. If you ever find yourself in Chelva, do not hesitate to admire the majesty of the Archpriest Church of Our Lady of the Angels. 🌟🏰🌿

Nice, lively square, there is a cafe.

The La Mozaira bridge is located in the Tuéjar river ravine. It has a semicircular arch and the pass is almost 20 meters above the river. Definitely worth a visit to appreciate this architectural element in the middle of nature.

In the cold months he is always alone and it's amazing, being able to walk and eat there without people. In summer, it is crowded, full of people. A good swimming area.
