One of the main attractions for visitors are the extensive forests of the municipality, located within the Natural Park of the Sierra Calderona, for hiking and breathing fresh air. The PR CV8 runs through Olocau and we also have 7 signposted municipal routes:

Fountains Route: Easy and accessible circular walk, of only 1 hour and 3.3 km long, which runs through the town center and its surroundings, showing its most remarkable sources. Some examples that are known on this route are the Font del Frare, the Font de la Salud or the El Arquet aqueduct.

Puntal dels Llops Route:
