At the entrance to Cuevas de Viñayo, we turn left to take the first track that begins on the other side of Cuevas. This path ascends to the Piedrasecha hill (1,268 m). Crossing the town, the route connects with the Portilla de Luna path, to begin a new ascent to the Coros pass (1,311 m). It then descends to Portilla, where the asphalt continues until the district of La Magdalena and, finally, northwards to Vega de Caballeros.
