シエラエスプーニャの峠・トップ3

From the Ricardo Codorniú Visitor Centre, a very long forest track leads up to this mountain pass.

Summit of the pass through the Enspuña.

Very bad asphalt in the west, acceptable in the east. If you want to take the pass through the Sierra Espuña, it is better to take the "parallel" roads to the north or south to/from the RM-515, this one is in the worst condition (2024).

Mostly good asphalt, only a little tourist traffic, a lot of forest and little view of the landscape. In the west of the section you can turn north to drive onto the Espuña. It is closed (militarily) at the summit, but you can drive almost to the top (it's just not possible to plan that far on Kommot). This section has the best asphalt quality (2024), but the northern cross connection via the Zona "La Perdiz" is also asphalted and can be used as an alternative. There are some really bad sections in the east, all of which I didn't ride (and which you shouldn't choose).

Mostly good asphalt with some damage, especially further up. Very little traffic, just visitors to the national park. Incredibly beautiful route, which I prefer as a climb.

Highest point (1,223m) of the track that runs through the entire Leyva Valley. On one side views of the entire valley and on the other Prado Mayor.

Located in the Sierra Espuña and at an altitude of 1,201 m, we reach the Bermejo pass accompanied by a pine forest during the ascent and where we find a beautiful viewpoint. At this point, a brief false flat is imposed to recover energy and breath and contemplate the panorama and places as beautiful as Umbría de Peña Apartada, Peña Apartada itself, Cerro de la Garita, and of course, the deep and green Valley of the Espuna River. To the north, we find the Morrón de Espuña, and to the west the Barranco de Enmedio, El Purgatorio and the Pedro López hill.

This viewpoint offers one of the best panoramic views of the entire Sierra, since it is located at an altitude of 1,201 m, it is a must if you want to climb Morrón de Espuña and Pozos de la Nieve, a stop here offers the opportunity to see places as beautiful as Umbría de Peña Apartada, Peña Apartada itself, Cerro de la Garita, and of course, the deep and green Valley of the Espuña River; in the background you can see the Barrancos de Gebas. To the north, we find the Espuña morrón, and to the west the Barranco de Enmedio, El Purgatorio and the Pedro López hill.
