We are facing a dam with a capacity of 530.5 hm3 intended mainly for irrigation, although due to disagreements between administrations, it seems that the finalization of channeling works is still in progress.

Spartanly furnished clean hut with a clever locking mechanism on the entrance door. Good place to stay overnight.

From the highway, next to a building, a narrow road leads off, with many potholes at first. There's only one turnoff (left) a few kilometers later, to Robledo. The other takes you directly to the summit. At the end, the gradient increases. Once at the top, the views are impressive. From the guardhouse, you can see half the Sierra, and on the opposite side of the guardhouse, the other half.

Incredible, beautiful, desolate climb. If climbing from El Robledo the road will be quite rough all the way. If climbing from Hornos the first approx 10km is a great surface but also becomes quite rough when turning off for the last section.
