Any of the streets that lead to the parish church serve to leave Rueda in the direction of Pisuerga, where there is a recreation area. From there, the route heads southeast along a dirt road that follows the left bank of the Pisuerga. This path leads to a concrete walkway that gives access to Barcenilla. In Barcenilla, the route radically changes course, taking a marked west orientation to advance towards Vado and Cervera.
