Approach notes

Follow the Vueltona track, over a small col and traverse mid slope above Hoyo sin Tierra for the N face (approx 1hr 30).
Access Advice
Fuente Dé cable car:
Check seasonal schedules. At the time of writing (2024), year on year the cable car is becoming more popular and busier. If visiting in July/August, consider booking in advance to secure the desired time slot; do not expect to "arrive and ride".
Missing or not using the cable car adds 2 hours and 750 m of height gain, on the Jenduda or Hachero trails.
