La Maimona is located in the municipality of Montanejos, in the Alto Mijares region. It has a very variable flow depending on rainfall. It is an area frequently visited by climbers due to the existence of vertical walls of reddish stone.

Beautiful village with wonderful bathing spots

The Chillapájaros Straits owe their name to the echoes of the birds that inhabit the rocky area, also known as the Mijares Canyon, which is an impressive limestone cut caused by a fault, patiently filed and excavated by the surface runoff of the Mijares River. Here the river bed passes through a deep gorge, two walls more than a hundred meters high in a vertical drop, in a passage about twenty-five meters wide. The road accompanies the river at different heights, approximately 40 m in elevation. The perspectives of this formidable gorge, of its cliffs, can be seen through two large “balconies”, built inside a tunnel that opens the way to the Mijares highway. Later, the viewpoints mentioned above were incorporated. From all of them, you can see the pronounced escarpments carved by the Mijares, whose rocky walls are the destination of numerous climbers throughout the year.

Get close to the river bank and don't miss the views

You can't miss stopping on your route and taking some panoramic photos from this viewpoint. The views towards the valley of the Palancia River as it passes through the town of Teresa is truly postcard-worthy. To have the best views, it is best to move a little off the path and walk a few meters downhill to avoid the bushes.
