Itinerary description

The northern loop which includes the stunning Cornisa del Diablo is a great walk. Several ammonite fossils seen.
Just beyond the Devil's Shelf watch for a narrow slot on the left that gives easy access to the top of the massif from which there is an easy traverse (mostly sheep trails) across to where you join recognisable trails again.
The southern loop follows well marked tracks with lots of interesting rock formations.
The time shown includes sitting down to a beer in the visitors centre when we had finished as well as a couple of stops for snacks at some great viewpoints.
