The path avoids the curves of the meanders that form the main course of the Tera River, and many more of other streams, and without gaining hardly any positive slope it reaches the meadows of Majada Trevinca, at the foot of the imposing east face of the mountain, at the confluence of the torrents that flow down the slopes of Peña Maseirón, Peña Negra, Alto Ladeira da Medias and Peña Surbia, creating a fantastic mountain setting at the sources of the Tera. The path to the top does not let up, it goes straight up the side of the mountain to the summit, the geographical roof of Galicia and the province of Zamora.
