Itinerary description
We started from Capileira and went upwards ca 20 minutes. We parked along the road and started walking towards the mountains. Good path.
Beautiful. After some time will see channels of water with path alongside. We followed this water channel for a while , then left it to follow the normal path again.
The best for you is only to follow the water channel instead . More beautiful and far more fllat and easy.
This upper water channel leads you to the area between the barn of the Refugio and the Refugio. Just walk along the water channel until you see red sticks marking the path up to the Refugio. The step path up is marked with the red sticks all the way up.
We used 30 minutes up.
You can buy food and drinks and also sleep over night if bed available without preebooking. They told us that they often are fullt booked for weekends but more flexible in week days.
Amazing. Bring cash.
