Spain mountains

"Today is the first day of freedom for mountaineers by COVID-19, with the restriction of not leaving the municipality itself. The ascent to this mountain runs mostly through urbanized areas, except the last two kilometers of ascent. At the top there is an old military fort from the 19th century. Although abandoned, it is in an acceptable state." — drgrijando • May 2, 2020

"When I write these lines we have been martial law in Spain for five days, France is also like that two days ago, in Italy much more. The streets of the cities are deserted and everything seems unreal, the population takes it the best they can and with enough civility and tranquility. I say this because I don't know when I can climb more mountains without breaking the law, risking a fine or arrest for being away from home. On the other hand, this mountain still retains some value in terms of flora and fauna, having also spectacular views over the Isla del Fraile. This island was inhabited in Roman times and the famous "Garum" was produced there, which was exported to the entire empire. A narrow trail dotted with thyme and asparagus leads to its summit." — franciscobirruezo • Mar 15, 2020

"These mountains are near the town of Pulpí, they have no trails so you have to climb between rocks and bushes. Among some esparto plants I stumbled upon a small blackberry turtle, which hid in its shell when it saw me. From the top of Cabezo Pelado I could see my second objective of the morning, the Cabezo Canillas, of lower altitude. In the end I made a circular route in mountains that seem to have no interest but that are a refuge for numerous plants and animals." — franciscobirruezo • Mar 9, 2020

"Warm day at Cabo Cope, a strange joke of suspended dust hides the horizon. I climb to the Collado de las Cabricas where there were prehistoric human settlements. Continue along the south side of Cope on a dangerous hillside that admits no mistakes. I see Numerous seagulls below me. The cliffs of about 600 feet are spectacular. I decide to gain height by guiding me just a bunch of stones. Below is the medieval Tower and the extensive and lonely Marina de Cope." — franciscobirruezo • Feb 28, 2020
