カルメネスの峠・トップ5

The path winds between rock walls, the murmur of the stream accompanying every step. For centuries, it was a thoroughfare for muleteers and pilgrims seeking the north, following the water's course. On rainy days, the air smells of damp earth and heather, and the landscape seems wilder, as if the path itself were reminding us that here, the mountain always reigns supreme.

The track is mostly made of loose stones, with a moderate technical difficulty. It doesn't have any major slopes, but it is hard. Sometimes it is difficult to move forward on the loose stones. You should know that this track was going to be a road that was never finished. When you reach the top you can see Asturias, the municipality of Alto Ayer. The views at the top and during the climb are wonderful, it is worth the effort. The descent is very tiring for both arms and legs.

Course with only a few delicate passages, otherwise smooth and fun. The views are exceptional.

La Llana Calva, also Llanacalva, is a hill in the middle of a beech forest where in the past the cider was mashed (crushed). Today it is a recreation area for hikers where there are several wooden carvings representing different animals: a bear, an eagle, a woodpecker and a capercaillie.

The Collada Propinde is a mountain pass, part of the Vía de la Carisa, the main Roman road that connected León with Gijón. Near this point are the ruins of a Roman fort (military fortification).

Nice path that runs along the spine of the Collado Cimero with beautiful views over the Orzonaga beech forest. This path joins with the Cimero Refuge.

Fun "single track" that runs along the spine of Collado Cimero with beautiful views over the Orzonaga beech forest.

Tip: nothing else to go.
