Itinerary description

|
Show original
A different place, a route that does not follow any path but where the sand leaves you. Also on a spectacular day with a night snowfall that left some spectacular images.
For those who want to know this place, you can take the route and GPS as a reference but I recommend simply trying to follow where the sand makes the path more comfortable (ascents can be half a meter up, 40cm down). The origin of the route is always visible (impossible to get lost) and running down the dunes can be a lot of fun.
The day can be completed with a walk to the nearby Zapata Falls
