Trekking Routes Sierra Nieves, Los Sauces

TIME(approx.): 3 hours.

The way provides a pleasant walking tour through Los Sauces camp region where there is a grove of firs. After leaving Los Sauces through the Cañada de la Encina walking on along a soft slope towards a brook, we shall be climbing through a gorge along a winding track.

Initially, this track makes it way southwards and then turns abruptly round the cliff, crossing what used to be an extensive grove of firs wich was destroyed by a fire.

Then the track goes up until reaching a very picturesque farm house by a hill with a splendid orchad of cherry trees.

Once at the hill, we shall prepare the climb to the Peñón de Ronda, 1297m high, located on our right. From the top, there is a splendid perspective of the Torrecilla (see route MA10). Walking down along the same track, we shall arrive at the Peñón country house, still inhabited, in a bucolic place at the foot of the peack.

From here we shall walk on westwards in the opposite direction we had initially taken, on the other side of the peack, in order to take a track with makes its way along the hillside of the rock and soon reaches the Palancar country house, from alon a lane until reaching a cross ways wich we shall take to the right.
