Tunnels in the Desfiladero de las Xanas

Highlight • Structure

The mountain path along the edge of the "Nymphs' Gorge" (Desfiladero de las Xanas) leads through several tunnels. These represent preparatory work from the 1930s for a road that was ultimately never built.

Beautiful steep gorge with beautiful vistas in the valley. Not suitable for people with a fear of heights 😉. Halfway a bar restaurant for coffee, basic food and beer.

Xanas are nymphs around whom all sorts of stories and tales revolve here by this stream. They are very affectionate towards lovers and make wishes come true. Our wish for fog-free, warm weather has already come true. In Petroveya, we treated ourselves to coffee and cold drinks.

Route with many climbs, some hard, and dangerous descents on a rainy day. The part of the gorge is more beautiful but it is worth it, recommended.
