At the Collado de la Atalaya you have to head northeast along the slope of the mountain range following a level path marked with stone markers. The path crosses the Las Hoyas de los Portillos valley and climbs halfway through the pine forest towards the wall of the Muela del Cerro Morrón. In the pine forest you have to keep climbing towards the east and at the base of the walls connect with the path coming from the north face of the mountain. The landmarks are clear between the pine trees and the mole wall, they jump a couple of small slopes near other cavities and lead to the spectacular Cueva de los Pilares, a fantastic natural rock sanctuary with arches, vaults and giant columns. The climb to the summit of the mole leaves from the cave through the canal located to the west, it is a clear and obvious climb, it has stone markers and although it seems that there is no exit with good visibility, it is a simple section along some aerial ledges without too many complications, unless the rock is wet, it cannot even be classified as a climbing step, rather technical mountain hiking. The milestones enter the large inclined molar plain and take the direction of the summit through the center of the mountain.

At Cerro Morrón (1,730 m) there is a trig point and good views of the Moncayo massif. The visible summit is Lobera (2,226 m) and behind it the distant San Miguel peak (2,315 m), simply showing the silhouette of the summit. And below the pedestal of the great mountain covered by endless forests of pines, oaks and beech trees. Towards the north the enormous plain of the Ebro valley and around it the rest of the reliefs of the eastern Iberian region.

Beautiful picture that the almond fields give us (during the spring season) and the town of Calcena in the background that will surely make us take out the camera to photograph.

The so-called "strait of Gibraltar" is located in the Valcongosto ravine, very close to the town of Purujosa. It is advisable to walk with firm footing since the terrain is usually slippery depending on the water level, but it is definitely worth it.
