Spain mountains

"I go to this mountain looking for tranquility and pure air. I climb Pico 855 m first in La Sierra de Ricote, the forest is greener than the last time I walked here. I see some wild daffodils as I climb the west edge. I have lunch at the top before going down the east side and make a circular route. I then go to Piedra Bermeja following a forest trail, the rocky ridges soften and the landscape looks drier. This peak is not spectacular, but the silence and the peace it conveys encourage me to meditate for a while on its summit. Upon returning I decide to go through the Almeces Peak that due to its prominence has good views of the surrounding fields." — franciscobirruezo • Feb 15, 2020

"From Calle Majanicho steady walk onto col between the crater and neighbouring hill. Then took the lesser of the incling paths to the more northernly side. Impressive scale of crater. Then down something like a path direct to col and up Colorado and continuing down on same line. Descent very loose and dusty." — vygodski • Feb 13, 2020

"Driving up to this from the south, past the two big ranges, and only having a rough idea of it, other mountains were speculatively raised to its holy mountain status. But when this one did ultimately appear, it relegated them once more, as it is a fine looking thing - a slightly different colour to its surroundings - stout and majestic. Having heard it was a popular destination, I anticipated a good solid path. But that wasn't to be and this presented a bit of a scramble at times, often on pretty lose ground. The path from the ruined buildings was marked by an aging sign saying the route was not permissible. I took it nonetheless and then got up the ridge on the northern side. Explored the summit and the remaining part of the ridge. Then descended down the large slabs SW. Would have been better to ascend this way directly. " — vygodski • Feb 13, 2020
