리에바나‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪10‬개의 산길

After rain the downhill (opposite dierction) can be somewhat challenging with steep rocky and muddy sections. I rode it on a gravel bike with 50 mm tires. Not too technical, but you need to watch out.

This is one of the most beautiful climbs in the area. 26.5 kilometers at an average gradient of 5%, with a total of 1,300 meters of elevation gain. Smooth, with good pavement and spectacular views.

Located 2 km from Puerto de San Glorio, it is worth stopping by to enjoy the views towards Picos.

Nice and quiet port for cycling. Be careful with the fog at altitude.

The mountain journey enters a comfortable and quiet section on the western slope of Alto del Naranjo, passes through the extensive Robadorio hill and heads directly along the ridge towards the northern spur of Alto del Cubil del Can, the key pass of the route. Under normal conditions, without ice or snow on the mountain, it is an atmospheric ascent along the side cliffs and quite steep, but it does not present technical difficulties, except for a climb (II) at the end of about three meters to crown the spur. The path climbs through the shade of the mountain range and in winter it usually has sections of hard snow or ice. It is important to assess the conditions before starting the ascent and always carry crampons and ice axe. In the channel located on the left side of the climb there is a corridor (45/50 degrees) which is an interesting option when the mountain is covered in snow, sometimes you may need two ice axes. The entrance is in a gap in the rope about ten meters before reaching the climbing step. In case of doubt, it is advisable to go up along the shoulder of the normal route. The climb ends on the northern shoulder of the summit of Alto del Cubil del Can (2,420 m) and continues on comfortable and safe terrain towards the Tres Provincias peak.

Great views of the surrounding mountains

With the gravel bike and/or luggage go slowly. Take your time to walk your bike on the steepest sections (15% +), views are amazing. Because of the loose rocks your wheel will slip sometimes.

The Massif Central in all its splendor.
