    The Penyagolosa (1,813 m) is popularly considered the geographical ceiling of the Valencian Community because all its slopes are within the province of Castellón, although it is officially Cerro Calderón or Alto de las Barracas (1,831 m), which has a slope in the Valencian territory of Rincón de Ademuz and another in the province of Teruel. The summit of Penyagolosa is a rocky trident with three spurs separated by vertical walls and vertiginous channels that fall towards the precipices of the south face. The views are magnificent, on clear days the Columbretes Islands appear on the Mediterranean horizon.

      Penyagolosa is known for its stunning panoramic views and is a popular destination for hiking enthusiasts. The route to the summit will take you through pine forests and rocky terrain, offering a unique experience in contact with nature. In addition, at the base of the mountain is the hermitage of Sant Joan de Penyagolosa, an important pilgrimage destination.
