    Tips

    It is the fourth highest peak in Spain with an elevation of 3,396 meters. It has vertiginous cuts that outline its north, east and south faces. The shadow of its jagged walls means that an area of permafrost with fossil ice from the last ice age, some thirteen thousand years ago, is still preserved.

      Wonderful views. Few major peaks can be reached by bike.
