Itinerary description

A hike from refugio Urriellu to the top of the cable car to Fuente de. There is one tricky section - a very steep climb (requires rock scrambling) to Cabana Veronica. From there it is an easy descent to "El Cable". The first part of the hike is in the high mountains area, wild and deserted. The second part provides nice views to the green valley and mountains around Fuente de.
~12km, 5hours

    It's a really useful info for me as I was considering this route. I don't want to scramble at all and will take another route :)
    Thanks for warning!
