Located in the Iruelas Valley Nature Reserve. From this route you can get beautiful panoramic views of the Iruelas Valley Natural Reserve and the Tiétar Valley on the other side. The path begins in Puerto de Casillas and heads west. After about 500 meters, the route deviates, taking the track that goes out to the right. For about 2 km the route climbs among young pines. From then on, the path describes a turn of more than 90º to the left, revealing before our eyes the impressive Canto del Berrueco, the Praderas del Sol and the Cerro de la Escusa. The difficulty of the route and its altitude make it not recommended with ice or snow.
