トゥダンカの峠・トップ3

From Los Tojos (636 m) and Colsa (729 m) the rope is gained at the Venta Vieja pass (1152 m), where one of the many inns that awaited the traveller along the way was located.

A hill located below the summit of the same name as the Saja reserve, resting on a ridge of gentle elevations above the Cabuérniga valley. These Saja mountains are often known as the Sierra de Bárcena Mayor, due to the town that lies at its feet at an altitude of 534 metres. In ancient times, the so-called Camino de Castilla or Reinosa road crossed this ridge towards the lands of Campoo. From Los Tojos (636 m) and Colsa (729 m) the ridge was reached at the Venta Vieja hill (1152 m), where one of the many inns that awaited the traveller along the way was located.

The Collada de Carmona is a mountain pass in the Cantabrian mountain range located in western Cantabria.[1] It rises to 601 m above sea level and links the towns of Valle to the east and Carmona to the west, both belonging to the municipality of Cabuérniga.

The Monte Aa Pass is a very beautiful climb with spectacular landscapes. The pass is located on the mountain that separates Carmona from Ruente. Along the route we will find different trees catalogued within the Inventory of Singular Trees of Cantabria. These are spectacular specimens of oak and beech. The Monte Aa forest is made up of a mature oak forest dominated by oaks. To a lesser extent, there are beeches, sessile oaks and oaks. The abundance of holly trees is remarkable. As for the fauna that inhabits it, birds such as the goshawk, the sparrowhawk, the black kite, the common buzzard, the common kestrel, the woodpecker and other forest birds stand out. Mammals such as the roe deer, the deer or the badger and carnivores such as the marten or the polecat.

The Abellán pass (also called the Joza de Abellón pass) is reached by a steep track. From this point, the views of the Peña Sagra mountain range, with the Cornón standing out from the rest of the peaks, are impressive.

It has a length of almost 6 km, an altitude of 554 meters and an average slope of 5.62%.

Great paths for biking and the views are spectacular! Almost free of traffic and in perfect condition. Watch out for cows and cow pats on the road!

You can climb from Puentenansa, or from Puente Arrudo through the gorge to Quintanilla or also from La Hermida after climbing the Collado Hoz.
