Hardacho & Camping Altomira (Navajas)

The old mining railway of Sierra Menera is today a car-free asphalt path whose railway gradients never exceed 2%: perfect terrain for cycling with children. The Palancia section strings together red-rock cuttings, tunnels and viaducts with constant views of the Calderona and Espadán ranges, among orange groves and olive trees.

Ride it à la carte: ~8 km one way to Estivella, or 22–24 km to Segorbe and Navajas — ideal by bike — with the Regajo reservoir glittering below the track and the tunnels between Navajas and Jérica as the grand finale. Bikes and e-bikes can be rented in Navajas (Hardacho, right on the greenway, and Camping Altomira).

Carry a light for the tunnels (some are lit, some are not) and water — there are fountains only in the villages. From October to June any hour works; in summer, ride early.
