At the intersection of the Demanda greenway with the climb to the (abandoned) Valle del Sol ski resort there are some benches and some mine carts. However, it is better to rest in nearby Pineda de la Sierra, which has bars

The railway crossed this port through a tunnel. When making the greenway, the original route was not recovered, so the arrival and departure of the port are two very steep slopes. Most panniers make them by pushing the bike.

The fictional cemetery “Sad Hill Cemetery” was artificially created for the filming of “Two Glorious Scoundrels”. The scene of the big showdown is iconic, in which the three opponents face each other between the graves of an old cemetery in a haunting finale. The cemetery was exposed to increasing decay. A group of courageous residents polished up the cemetery in 2016 in time for the 50th anniversary of the cult western.

In this natural setting the duel of the mythical movie The Good, the Bad and the Ugly was filmed. But apart from that, as soon as you get there, the cemetery is only part of the natural beauty that that valley has.
