Take careful note of where the signpost actually points. Most walkers continue to the coast, which is covered in Walk 3, but our route follows a vague path running parallel to the track, just to the left, becoming clearer only as it drifts away from the track. This is the PR LZ 10-12 for Loma Pico de Naos. The path rises gently into Valle del Pozo, following a dry streambed for a while. Exit on the right past prickly pears and follow the path across a crest around 220m (720ft). The path is unmistakeable, looping in and out of gullies on the mountainside, passing more prickly pears and becoming rockier as it rises. Reach a track on a gap at Loma Pico de Naos, at 302m (991ft), where there is a turning space. The track leads, in less than 1km (½ mile) to bus stops at Las Casitas.

Looking along the Valle de Femés, from the slopes of Pico de la Oveja, to Las Casitas

A path on the left climbs south-west, later zigzagging uphill. It then has rock rising to the left, and tabaibal dotted around, before reaching a bare gap. At this point it is worth turning sharp left up a short path to a rocky little summit at 375m (1230ft) bearing prickly pears. The path continues from the bare gap, zigzagging uphill and reaching a fork. Keep left along the higher path, but if the other is taken in error, both paths rejoin later. It is again worth making a sharp left turn to climb to the summit of Pico de la Oveja, at 471m (1545ft), to enjoy fine views. On the way to the gap beyond, the slopes become bouldery and the path is more rugged. Either pass or climb Pico de las Flores, then continue towards buildings on the next gap. This is the goat farm on Loma Pico de la Aceituna, passed earlier in the day. Simply walk down the access track and road to return to Femés.
