The view from the top of Gilbo Peak, known as the Matterhorn of León, is simply spectacular. From its 1,679-meter altitude, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Riaño reservoir, the León fjords, and the mountains of the Riaño and Mampodre Mountain Regional Park.

Even though this small sacred monument isn't located on the classic route of the Way of St. James through northern Spain, in view of the summit cross standing here, some thoughts by Hape Kerkeling might be helpful as inspiration. The entertainer, who is particularly famous in Germany, walked the Camino Frances in 2001 and kept a diary, which was published under the title "Ich bin dann mal weg" (I'm off then). In it, he describes his personal encounter with God along the way as follows: "Yesterday, something inside me struck a huge gong. And the sound will reverberate. Sooner or later, this path shakes everyone to their very foundations. I know the sound will slowly fade, but if I listen carefully, I'll be able to hear this reverberation for a very long time to come."

This refuge is located in one of the most beautiful meadows in the Guadarrama mountain range, on the north side of Peñalara. It is important to maintain it and keep it in good condition.

Gilbo Peak, known as the "Leonese Matterhorn," is one of the most popular hikes in the Riaño Mountains, León. It offers spectacular views of the Riaño Reservoir and the "Leonese Fjords."

It is also known as Cruz de Fierro (Iron Cross). A mountain landmark (1504 m) that stands on the French Way in the mountains of León as it passes through the province of the same name, corresponding to the autonomous community of Castilla y León. 230 km from Santiago. It is one of the best-known and most symbolic places of all the Jacobean routes, and perhaps for this reason the most mythologised and exciting, with the Monte do Gozo de Santiago, the first place from which pilgrims on the French Way observe the city of Santiago.

The "iron cross" here on Monte Irago, which is legendary for many pilgrims on the Camino Frances to Santiago de Compostela to the grave of the Apostle James the Greater, has since been replaced by a copy at the original location. The cross, which appears comparatively small due to its enormous height, stands out from a constantly growing pile of stones at the top of a very long tree trunk. Many pilgrims take a stone with them on the Way of St. James and lay it here. This stone symbolizes the burdens and needs of the pilgrims (or their family members and friends at home), who in this way symbolically cast off their worries at this point with the stone, and can thus move on free of them.

Pico Gilbo is an iconic mountain located in the Cantabrian Mountains, near Riaño, in the province of León. With an altitude of 1,679 metres, it is known for its stunning panoramic views and challenging climb.
