Most beautiful canyon in the area. Beware that the path is technical, it includes some easy rock climbing. Definitely wear good shoes. El Cuervo is a great starting point, but if in a hurry you can drive up to a parking close (path!) and gain 2 km.

Minimalistic shelter, enough to protect you from the weather. Keep in mind to bring enough water since there is no spring nearby.

The final section of the climb to Alto de las Barracas (1,838 m) is not cyclable but it is easy to climb pushing the bicycle. The trail markings pass through the vertex and continue in the direction of Pino Vicente. White and yellow signs are painted on the limestone rocks and there are also stone milestones marking the way.
