Puerto caucon 2

Beautiful hiking tour from "View Point to View Point" at the la Sierra de las Nieves from Yunquera

We begin our route in the outskirts of Yunquera, from the viewpoint of Luis Ceballos, with some stunning views towards the Pinsapo Forest of Lajares. We continue climbing up to the Gamones viewpoint and finally we reach the Tajo de la Caína at an altitude of 1,400 meters above sea level, from there we can  perfectly see the top of Torrecilla, the Corona Hill, the Cañada de las Carnicerías, the Picacho from Fatalandar and the town of Yunquera with the Cabrilla and Prieta mountains and the Sierra de Alcaparaín behind them. A continuous descent, between Pine trees and Pinsapo trees, takes us back to Puerto del Caucón where we had started the route.
