Route Length Circular Route Maximum Altitude Height Gain Distance 61,3 km 1.075 m 1.075 m Minimum Altitude Height Drop Distance Coordinates Difficulty Level 191 m 191 m 1084 Difficult 1639m of climb in 61.3km of track make this a challenging route. Leaving Camping Castillejo the cyclist passes briefly through Fortuna town and starts on the long climb up to the base of the Sierra De La Pila. Passing through El Corteo de Las Penas, this is a historic landmark and has some amazing natural rock formations. Many years ago, this route served as a strategic point to stop people passing from the south to the north and today is a protected area. You will then pass the small village of Casicas and on to Garapacha. The trail proper starts when you arrive at Garapacha, a quick look at the old church and the bar next to it, this will surely revive the cyclist and get them ready for the hard part of the trail to come. The trail takes the cyclist to the ‘Four Lane Ends’ meeting point and off to the west side of the Sierra De La Pila with beautiful views and winding tracks. Once back to the ‘Four Lane Ends’ meeting point the cyclist is off to the East side of the Sierra De La Pila. On the way round you will go up steep tracks and head towards the peak of the Sierra De La Pila. The steep climb will level out and you can see the Pozos De Nieve or snow Collecting Holes, these were built to collect snow and save water when water was scarce. Carrying on up the climb you will take a sharp right turn down a very technical track, be careful! This track will take you back to Garapacha and onto the long down hill back to Fortuna and Camping Castillejo. More
