The Balcón de Pilatos is a plateau in the Bardenas that allows you to see it in its entirety from above. From here, you can see the Shooting Range; the Valfondo ravine; in the background to the right, "Las Cortinas"; to the left, "El Yugo," "La Estroza," etc. It has many "veres": in spring, it will be a beautiful green; in summer, a desert-like yellow-ochre, also beautiful to me; if it has rained beforehand, it will be a deep brown (don't even think about entering: you'll be trapped for several days, as many unfamiliar people are). Its characteristics are due to the deforestation carried out since ancient times to obtain wood to meet the needs of the new society following the unification of the Catholic Monarchs and the subsequent Imperial needs. At the beginning of the last century, the resin from the remaining pine trees was also used to make "pez" (one of the pitch ovens has been rehabilitated). Now we find ourselves with a territory that is declared a Natural Park in an attempt to "conserve" the natural disasters produced by the "wild deforestation" carried out: Bardenas Reales de Navarra is the fruit of human action that has turned an "immense Mediterranean forest" into a "semi-desert place with no possibility of recovery: It would not be bad if someone with greater environmental sensitivity thought about, and launched, a project to demonstrate the capacity for human environmental destruction instead of using European and military (NATO and Spanish) money to "conserve!?-exploit" for tourism purposes what a "Town Council" decides without control of a Democratic Parliament, in the best feudal style of those that still remain in our country. That's Bardenas!

Warning! Update 2025: Do not hike this trail! The descent from Piskerra no longer exists. The ascent to Piskerra is also not easy and not for beginners. The same applies to the broken steps. It took me three hours to complete the entire hike, twice as long as planned, and at times I was in mortal danger. No joke.

Beautiful walk in an absurd landscape. But certainly not easy or safe. Many paths are eroded (and impossible to find), and the stairs to the lookout point have completely collapsed. In wet weather it becomes super slippery. Climb at your own risk.

There is very little shade on the entire circular route, only the last, short section in the gorge has shade. In summer it can get as hot as 40 degrees Celsius and then only the section in the gorge is recommended, not the circular hike.
