One of the most legendary climbs in the Sierra de Córdoba, well-known for both hiking and mountain biking. It's a tough, consistent climb, very popular with local cyclists and races like the Andalucía Bike Race and the Guzmán el Bueno (the latter often runs it in the opposite direction). The Cuesta del Reventón ascends towards the Ermitas de Córdoba, a classic panoramic viewpoint. It's a wide, rocky path with a steep incline, frequently used by cyclists and hikers. Approximate length: between 2.7 km (classic route) and 4.7 km depending on the mountain bike variant. Elevation gain: between 155 m and 486 m, depending on the route.

Circular route from Turruñuelos Park, Córdoba, passing through: - Torrehoria Viewpoint (19.5 km) - Torre del Beato (23.1 km) - Torre de las Siete Esquinas (24.5 km) - Bridge over the canal (29.5 km) The route begins along the Guadalmellato Canal, ascends through La Canchuela, Llanos de los Mesoneros, passes the El Cruce gas station, enters the "Fangor" forest, Torrehoria, Camino del Nuo Bajo, Torre del Beato, Torre de las Siete Esquinas, and from there descends to reach the start of the Trassierra Trail. Except for the descent from Siete Esquinas, the route, exceptionally beautiful given the recent rainfall in the mountains with runoff everywhere, follows paths without technical difficulty, making it even more appealing. It's a challenging distance but offers stunning views of the surrounding area and the city and its environs from the highest points.

The Mocho bridge is located in Alcolea, within the municipality of Córdoba, and crosses the Guadalmellato river near its mouth in the Guadalquivir. It is a Roman bridge that was part of the Via Augusta, the great road that connected Cádiz with the Pyrenees passing through Córdoba.

El Puente Mocho connects the CH-1 road with the CO-3103 road which will take us to the town of Villafranca de Córdoba. It is a route frequently used by cyclists as its asphalt is in good condition and its low volume of motor vehicles makes it very safe. The route is winding with continuous ups and downs, it is a perfect area to train on.
