シエラデグラサレマの峠・トップ7

A was A A ❤️❤️♉️⚛️🆔⚛️

This is one of the most famous climbs in the area, and with good reason: it's a beautiful route through a unique setting. It's 15 kilometers, averaging 5.7% gradient, and you ascend toward the mountain pass on a well-surfaced road with hardly any hard shoulders. Depending on the day of the week, you may encounter traffic, although drivers are accustomed to the presence of cyclists.

Puerto de las Presillas is a very popular trail in the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park in Andalusia. This route offers stunning views of the Sierra del Endrinal and allows you to observe unique geological formations, such as sharp ridges and hollows, created by the dissolution of limestone rock.

To reach the Navazuelos port, at 1,100 meters above sea level, you have to face a slope that sometimes exceeds 30% inclination. Many trails leave from here in different directions, making it an obligatory point of passage for various routes.

Right next to this mountain pass there is a bar where you can rest after having climbed to 595 masl :)

Attention, this route is outdated and is not continuous. Can no longer be carried out as a round trip. It has been capped for 5 years (the property owner tells me I was lucky that he was there and the dogs barked and unlocked the gate from the pasture for me with the key. I was practically trapped!!! ) cerca 2 km from el Salto de Cabrero catch serious clues. Best to return. The green markings on the stones are from back when the route was still continuous!

The landscape is dotted with limestone rocks that, due to dissolution and the passage of time, have been transformed into curious karst formations. At the geological level it is also of great interest. I recommend you visit it in winter or spring to better appreciate the colors and the contrast of the rocks with respect to the grass.

Impressive route through the karst of the Grazalema massif
