The ascent to the summit of the Santa Bárbara peak (2,271 m) starts from the car park at the pass along a well-signposted mining lane. Immediately there is the detour that goes up to the summit and other paths to visit the old lead and fluorite mines of Calar. The path passes between the mouths of several mines protected by wooden walkways and reaches the highest peak of the natural park. The panorama surrounds the entire horizon of the province of Granada, with good views of Sierra Nevada and the broken profile of the Cazorla, Segura and Las Villas mountains. The descent is through the same place until the pass of the Mina.

Sierra de Baza and Sierra de Los Filabres are part of a remote mountain range over 2.000m height in the province of Granada and Almería, and the most isolated area of Badlands. This mountain range was a historic crossroads of cultures, and its legacy includes remains of Roman aqueducts or Arab castles. At the highest point of the range lies the iconic Calar Alto Observatory (2.168m), easy recognizable from fara way. The range also includes one of the most iconic and spectacular mountain pass in the Iberian Peninsula, el Puerto de Velefique (1.820m), popular by the high number of hairpin in the South side. The South limit of Sierra de los Filabres reaches the village of Gérgal, considered the North gate of the Tabernas Desert.
