The two trails that leave the Puerto de San Vicente towards the top of the mountain lead to the landmark of the San Vicente peak (1,321 m). On one side of the summit, with extraordinary views of the Sierra de Gredos and the high Tiétar, are the ruins of a hermitage built in the old Cueva de los Mártires, where three brothers lived fleeing from the Romans. On a hill to the south are the remains of an old fortress of Umayyad origin that was in the hands of the Temple. The hill is the Mons Veneris of the Romans, the Mount of Venus where they worshiped the goddess of love and beauty. And it was also a place of worship for the Vetton peoples who lived in the mountains long before, without a doubt a very special summit. The trail returns to the port of San Vicente through the same site and descends towards El Real de San Vicente along the PR-TO 21, once again crossing the monumental chestnut grove of La Tejea.
