Hiking

This town in ruins will be one of many that we will find within the Ruta del Cares. Another settlement that is currently abandoned despite the fact that, from time to time, we can see the occasional cow or goat. It really is in a unique setting, surrounded by the classic stone of Picos in the shape of a canyon.

Hiking

Special place along the Ruta del Cares. This ruin seems to be permanently inhabited with mountain goats, who seem to be well used to the many hikers who pass by their house.
