From the junction between the CV 50 and Mestre Serrano Street, we take the second one towards the Tennis Club, the entrance of which we leave on our left going through the orange groves. At the first crossroads we take the path on the left to reach the foot of the mountain, where we turn right following the cypresses. We continue about 200 metres and on the left side we will take a path, which is not signposted at the crossroads, but a few metres towards the interior, so we have to take care not to make a mistake.

The path leads us into the mountain and, after passing the first signposting, towards la Font de la Granata, becomes winding in its steep ascent. Around kilometre 2, we find ourselves again at the crossroads that comes from l’ermita de Sant Llorenç. We continue to the left, always in the direction of la Font de la Granata. From this point on, the ascent becomes less pronounced until you reach the next junction (Fontetes de Cantús detour and it connects with PR-V 38) where the ascent ends. We turn right and the path becomes smoother, we continue along the path along the cliff enjoying the views of the Mediterranean Sea.

Following the path, the next signpost we find will guide us, following the descent, to the Font de la Granata. On the left path we go to the link with the PR-V 38 and la Font de la Sangonera. Once at la Font de la Granata, we leave the path and go down a forest track that will take us to the orange trees on the mountain’s lap. From this point, follow the signs along the Massalari paths and, on the right, after a straight line, to Racó Redó, where it leads us, by means of an ascending forest track, to the crossing of the viewpoint.

We will continue towards l’ermita de Sant Llorenç along the forest track, which we will also leave about 200 metres to the left at the next signpost, which will take us down a very steep slope through some stairs and a high pass to the beginning of the path and to the Tennis Club.
