About this tour
Day trip from Valencia to the mountain village of Montenejos, combining a three-hour hike with natural thermal pools. The 8.5-hour excursion departs from central Valencia in a minibus and offers two route options: an 11km canyon walk with river crossings through Barranco de la Maimona, or the shorter Morron de Campos ridge trail with panoramic views. After working up an appetite on the trail, soak in the warm mineral pools at la Fuente de Los Baños before returning to the city.
Highlights
- Two hike options depending on weather and fitness
- Canyon trek with river crossings and 300m elevation gain
- Ridge walk to highest local peak with sweeping views
- Natural thermal pools fed by mountain springs
- Included coffee before and time to swim after hiking
- Minibus transport from central Valencia
What to expect
You'll travel an hour into the hills in a comfortable 9-seater before settling into the village rhythm with a hot drink. The hike itself is steady but unrelenting—choose the canyon route for more technical river work and serious elevation, or the peak trail for easier footing and views that stretch across the region. Your legs will feel it. Once the trail spits you back out, the thermal pools are genuinely warm and genuinely mineral-rich. This is a proper leg-stretcher, not a stroll.
Good to know
Bring your own packed lunch—there's nowhere to buy food. Wear broken-in walking boots with grip. Sunscreen and a hat are essential; the exposure is real. Pack at least 1 litre of water. Not suitable for spinal conditions or weak cardiovascular fitness. Moderate fitness minimum.
