    Tips

    This trail, which branches off from the road near the Cueto Cuaceya rock formations and rejoins the road much further down, just before the bridge over the Rio Duje, consists of sections of varying character: The upper section is steep, often very wet and muddy (almost like a stream; perhaps easier in dry weather); for long stretches, it consists of beautiful stone paving with lush moss-covered stone walls; in the lower section, it leads steeply down the rocky slope via switchbacks – with wonderful flowers (including orchids!) at the right time. From this rocky slope, there are magnificent views into the valley of the Duje River with the Invernales del Texu winter pastures, as well as across to the village of Sotres.

    It offers a fantastic, fascinating shortcut to the boring road.

    Some photos show the trail from the opposite side of the valley near Sotres.
