This trail is very easy to walk, as it's mostly shaded. However, you should still wear good, sturdy shoes.

This important place of worship—as a cathedral, the most important church not only in the city but in the entire archdiocese—bearing the title "San SALVADOR" was not dedicated to one of the many people we venerate as blessed or saints and ask for their heavenly intercession with God. Rather, it is dedicated to the incarnate Son of God, Jesus Christ, our Redeemer and Savior.

If you want to reach the top, start by saving your energy. If you have to put your foot down, do so; it's no disgrace. With a 12-kilometer route and 1,258 meters of elevation gain, the first half has a gradient of around 8%, while the second half averages 13%, with ramps above 22%, it's considered one of the toughest mountain passes in Europe. And be careful: the descent is very dangerous if it's wet, and if it's dry, Zapata's brakes could overheat the tires.

The "Xanas," after whom the gorge is named, are Asturian mountain stream nymphs who enchant shepherds on St. John's Eve. The path was created in the 1930s as preparatory work for a planned road from Villanueva to Pedroveya, which ultimately never came to fruition.

The sculpture represents the artistic movement called "Boterismo". Botero depicts women, men, daily life, historical events and figures, milestones of art, still lifes, animals and nature in general, with exaggerated and disproportionate volumetry, accompanied by fine details of biting criticism, irony, humor and ingenuity.
