    Tips

    April 20, 2022

    We start the route by leaving the car in the Barranco de San Juan car park. Right in front of the starting point we will find a restaurant, perfect for having a drink and getting some energy before leaving or to replenish it on the way back.

    The route is designed to be completed in 3 days: we will spend the first night in Cueva Secreta and the second, in the Laguna de la Mosca. Therefore, we will have to bring everything we will need during those days. However, the climb is demanding, so it is best not to load up too much.

    Note: During the route, we will pass by several rivers where we can carry water if we have a bottle with a filter or water purification tablets.
