Itinerary description

Linear walk from behind the school in the village of El Gastor, through the forest uphill to the summit plateau of the mountain. You will be awarded with absolutely unbeatable views over the Zahara reservoir while admiring the circling vultures above your head.
The path is well indicated and only at the summit can be a little confusing; the path loops around the peak on the left hand side with the reservoir down to the left. There are no dangerous parts or steep drops on the path. The ascent takes the gentle sloop of the mountain and once at the summit plateau, there is lots of space to enjoy the views and have a rest. The other side of the mountain is a steep drop/rock wall. Watch out and don't get too close for a photo.
