Tips
In the Alto de Porrinoso there are remains of a shepherd's corral or some military post from the Civil War. In the Montes Carpetanos there are quite a few remains of military posts from a front that was active during the years of the Civil War. The walk to the Porrinoso cliffs offers a close view of the Hoyos and Hoyo Cerrado glacial cirques, which are impressive and show traces of the glacial apparatus that covered the mountain range in other times.
