Nice climb from the Aceña Reservoir to the Casa de la Cueva Hostel that goes up the Navalacuerda stream.

Attention! The river passage has collapsed due to recent rains, which prevents crossing the dog side, forcing us to continue the descent to the reservoir. If you go to Peguerinos you will have to take a long detour
