Steady Pace with steady to Moderate Terrain. 8 mile (12.5 km) hike. To the south of a quiet village over the prominent skyline we head to a secluded beach, then on to Batería de la Patajola. On this hike we have a total ascent of 2180 foot / 665 meters

❌Meetup at McDonalds Punta Prima at 0910 to star car share at 0915❌
❌Start point is 40 miles (77km) away❌

Meet in Canteras at Bar Moreno. It may be closed but there is a cafe very near by - not on google maps.

The route is a ❌recce❌ so be prepared for undulating paths and some 4 point contact with perhaps some loose terrain. However we have walked the first couple of miles but instead of climbing Roldán, this time we cross the range down to the beach for lunch or a swim. There is an old military installation on a further climb to our east where we will explore and have a closer view of Cartagena with a view to observe 2 further castles and assess if worth a walk on another day.

We return on a circular descent back to the village with an another leg tester blip of a hill just before returning to Canteras.
