In the passage through the main summit of the Azagayas, extreme precautions must be taken and in the case of encountering ice or snow, try to visualize the itinerary from afar, before arriving, to decide on the final stretch of the climb up the cliffs that form the top. The summit is a fantastic balcony of the granite chaos formed by the slopes of the Barco glacier cirque and the enormous gap of Garganta de Galín Gómez as it moves away towards the Tormes valley. Towards the south, the steep profile of the Cuerda Mala summits recedes and merges into an abyss of ridges and gorges that fall towards the Tiétar valley and the Garganta de los Infiernos in the Jerte valley. A captivating landscape.
