This section of the route runs through a rocky area devoid of vegetation that, in a continuous ups and downs, gains height from the 422 meters of altitude that we had next to the houses to the 525 meters that we reached in Los Collaos (km 17 ,4). From here we have a small section in saw teeth (always bordering on or slightly exceeding 500 meters) until we reach the descent (18.1) that will take us to Poncebos (km.20.2).

Hiking

This "path" is seldom easily recognizable or accessible, not signposted, sometimes very steep, often loose ground. The only navigation aid are the cairns, which were set up by the locals. Only tackle it when the weather is good, when the clouds are in your neck, things can get critical.
