“Boca del Infierno” (Gates of Hell) hiking trail
Outdoor sports in Sacedón!
Description of the route
Tour of the surroundings closest to the village. After walking through the streets of the village, passing by the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption and the Shrine of the Holy Face of God, the route ascends for just over 1 kilometre until you reach the detour leading to the Monument to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The monument is located on the Coronilla hill with spectacular views of the Entrepeñas Reservoir. The 23m high monument was built in cooperation with the Tagus Hydrographic Confederation and opened in 1956.
From the monument, there is a footpath down to the old N-320 road. Stay on the road for 200m until you can leave the road to access the viewpoint over the Entrepeñas Reservoir. The route now becomes a footpath and leads to the Boca del Infierno from where you go down a steep escarpment and then use the roads of a half-built housing development. Once you reach the houses closest to the reservoir, the route runs through several parks before arriving back at the starting point.
