메세가르 데 타조‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 산길

It's an open pass in the inhospitable landscape typical of this area. It's highly recommended because it offers easy connections to other passes such as Serranillos and Mijares.

A relatively simple port, with good asphalt and road visibility, moderate (average 5%) and constant gradients. It can be tricky on a windy day.

The Collado de la Honda is the final part of an old glacier that ends at this point. The glacier is the result of ancient times when the glacial movements were more southern and this is an example of how in this area of the middle of the Meseta there were.

The Río de la Garaganta descends through this valley that has formed over the years and that lets us see how the Sierra de Panamera peaks rise behind us.

This is one of the ports that was best known for world cycling at the end of the 20th century for the Vuelta España. But the port was reformed years ago and nowadays it is more open and where there are windy days, it is an important factor.

The port of La Paramera is another of those giants of Ávila, although with a lesser cachet than Serranillos, Mijares, El Pico or La Centenera, either by numbers or by landscape, although from this point of view it does not detract either, at least in its intermediate part, in the 6-7 kilometers after El Barraco.

The path runs along the slopes of the mountain range and descends to the spectacular pass of Portacho del Cuchillo, below the impressive mass of spurs, towers and channels of Peña Cabrera. At the pass you have to pass the gate of a livestock lane and go to the south slope. The path begins the descent directly through the head of the Cuchillo Ravine, passing at the foot of the striking Risco del Cuchillo boat, one of the most unique geological formations in the Zapatero massif.
