A part of the shrine, whose low is a small shelter, is a recreational area with tables and fire zones, ideal for lunch if the weather is. front of the chapel, across the park, is a track to the Port of Azaceta.

Northbound Elgea saws, Urkilla, Altzania Aizkorri and close the horizon in a north-northeast. Baio and San Donato / Beriain, in Navarre, complete this direction. To the east are seen Santa Elena, Bitigarra Iturrieta and, in the southeast, Indiagana, Sierra de Kodes, Joar and Costalera.

1,381 m. \u0026lt;> For Pipaon

Recio is a sharp pyramid overlooking the magnificent crests of Palomares. Neighbor

Cervera, both promotions are held comfortably in one early-morning departure with Pipaón starting point. A nice path leading to this rugged mountain top who knows.

In this case, as tends to do whenever, the weather has imposed its discretion by limiting the early-morning to the top of Recio.

But despite the wind and rain could crown this beautiful top of the Sierra de Cantabria or Toloño and as a lesser evil will be left for another day visiting the nearby summit of Cervera.

Together with a panel explaining the silversmith mushroom is a white and yellow sign, typical of the markers of short-distance trails. We turn left, entering the beech that coexists with the boxwood. When you enter in the beech (8 ') we crossed a new barrier metal. Fourth minutes later you reach a crossroads.

Overview
The Air This is the crest of Palomares and after this the one that joins the Lion Rock to San Tirso. To the south the vast plateau of La Rioja causes you to lose sight on the horizon. The closest we have the villages of La Rioja Alavesa; Biasteri, Pagan, Navaridas, .... and of course, the odd winery. From South to West hovers on the border with Samaniego Rioja, and the background the sharp peak of San Lorenzo in the Sierra de la Demanda. Before us the nearby summit of Cervera, which just shows what is behind it. Atxabal protruding tops and Toloño. Turning to the northwest Txulato appreciate in the same line, further north, Mount Moraza. After Moraza looms Cerro and after this Arkamu saws and Badaia. In front of us, to the right of Pipaon, Mount Semendia and the background, behind the plain of Trebino, the Montes de Gasteiz. The Gorbeia, representing the top of Araba, almost always visible from any point. Following Gasteiz Mountains north-east are Pagogan and Kapildui, unmistakable latter by the Weather Station which houses the top.
