마치조 데 페냐 카바르가 최고의 러닝 경로

Ruined buildings of the nearby Comlemento mine.

This climb is a beast, but worth it. First part is tough, but fine and offers nice views. Then you get some relief for a few hundred meters and see a warning sign with “18%”. This leads to a few hairpin turns that leave you thinking “this is doable”, but then the real deal starts. Long stretches of 15% and up without any recovery. It will test your willpower, but you feel accomplished when reaching the top and the view can’t be beat.

Iconic site of Peña Cabarga and one of the panoramic points par excellence with beautiful views in all directions, especially towards the Cantabrian coast. I recommend you go up here on a clear day with good visibility.

The smaller lake is very close to its older brother and is accessed by a short path that deviates from the main one. A very quiet and picturesque place.

There are two Valcaba pools and they are located at the foot of the Peña Cabarga massif. Its origin is artificial, they were used for mining in the area.

Very thick-walled ruins, believed to be related to the neighboring Mina Complemento - perhaps an earlier powder store.

The Wells of Valcaba are located at the foot of the southern slope of the Peña Cabarga massif and originate from mining in the area. This one in particular is the oldest and largest of the two and can be accessed by a small slope to the right, briefly leaving the marked path (be careful in winter when it slips). It is a beautiful place to rest on its shore but the water cannot be used as a recreation area (no jet skis, no swimming, or anything like that).

It is a stone / dirt forest road
