ソロサンチョの天然記念物・トップ5

Rounded mountain range that is easily accessible from several towns. From the geodesic vertex there are impressive front-row views of the Sierra de la Paramera, La Serrota, the Amblés valley to the south and all of La Moraña to the north.

The Río de la Garaganta descends through this valley that has formed over the years and that lets us see how the Sierra de Panamera peaks rise behind us.

The path runs along the slopes of the mountain range and descends to the spectacular pass of Portacho del Cuchillo, below the impressive mass of spurs, towers and channels of Peña Cabrera. At the pass you have to pass the gate of a livestock lane and go to the south slope. The path begins the descent directly through the head of the Cuchillo Ravine, passing at the foot of the striking Risco del Cuchillo boat, one of the most unique geological formations in the Zapatero massif.

The unique granite landscape is the result of the mineral composition, climatic changes and the weathering of the rock surfaces, giving rise to suggestive modeling forms. The most striking process is the slabs, the boats, the corridors and alleys and the granular disintegration, creating an authentic labyrinth of stone sculptures. To the west, at the headwaters of the Adaja River, the white reliefs of La Serrota emerge. The path follows the ridge and collides with the top pyramid of Zapatero in a clear hill where the ascent to the top begins on the southwest face. The ascent is marked with stone milestones. The ice and the amount of snow will determine the technical level of the ascent. First there is a rocky step to a wide and comfortable shoulder, where the final attack begins through a channel that leads to the access passage to the geodesic vertex through a kind of tunnel. The views from the top of the remaining section of the rope are breathtaking between large granite domes and giant speedboats, but it is actually easier than the previous section and almost all descent. The descent of the peak is along the east face, to a pass where the Path of Zapatero climbs from the left from Sotalvo.
