Camino from Orihuela to Caravaca de la Cruz

Hello All - hope winter has been kind to you.

I would be very grateful if someone could provide me with any details of this route. I cannot find any guidebooks or Maps .
The confusing issue is it is called “a 120k part of the Camino de Levante”in what little information I can see. In my mind, the Camino de Levant starts in Valencia - nowhere near Alicante, or Orihuela .
See the below link for example.
What ever happens - I am doing this short Camino on April 8th it’d be good to know what’s out there before I do .
Many thanks
Ian


 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Simply entering "Caravaca de la Cruz" into the Search box will get you started - here are the results - although you still need to wade through results that are not what you want. Among those results is this short thread, which gives a link to a site to 10 Caminos de la Vera Cruz. The 10th one on the list is simply called "Camino de Levante" - logical because it is also part of the longer Camino de Levante. There is some information (in Spanish) but the website does not seem to be updated recently.

Another thread that gives some background on Caravaca de la Cruz as a Holy City is this older one which also has a video about the walk.

I hope that will give you some leads for more information. It would be great if you would post here on the forum about the walk you do in April. We could use an update!
