Cicero's path Brana Quoits is one of the most spectacular mountain routes across the Cantabrian Mountains and the highest botanical interest, as precisely and as the name of the place of destination and shall, pass by all the native species of forest Biscay. Chestnut, oak, beech, rowan of hunters, ash, holly, birch, yew, will adorn our path as we go up, changing the species, concluding with a unique natural landscape, the Braña of Yew, perhaps the only place across the European continent in which many yew meet in the wild, many thousands of years. Also impressive viewing. We saved
900 m, starting from the beautiful Cicera, whose architecture has remained unchanged since its medieval origins, and the forest path Cordance, we will win the Summit Braña Quoits, to 1,415 meters after just over two hours of climbing. Some stretches of very steep, but with patience, we should not have any problem in crown.
The first installment of the old Chapel of Santa Cildo, very beautiful with hazel Cicera parallel to the stream, where there are secret places of trees and meadow. Once Cordance be crowned at 900 meters, pass by the shelter of pastors recently restored by the City Council Peñarrubia, to enter all strong in the Muron, and beech. Recreate an ancient ancestral mountain trail, used by man for many centuries, for livestock, for the production of charcoal, which left clear traces in the forest, mining of sphalerite, abandoning the mine entrances in the early twentieth century. It was also a place of passage and communication between Cicero and Lebeña because the Hermida Gorge did not exist. On this stretch of forest, as we have said is predominantly beech, although other species also accompany them, such as birch, yew, rowan, holly, etc., and especially from the 1,000 meters, there have been recent traces of existence grouse, the great cock Cantabrian close to extinction, and here probably find a suitable climate for life, for the northern face is very cold and wet.
After enjoying the magnificent Braña of Yew, continue along the road leading eastward Pasaneo leads to the hill (1344 m) at the foot of the Sierra de Peña Sagra, descend left into Peñarrubia by the path of the horses, going down the hill in front of us and the creek Traslaventa Sales Wolves right.
The track ends, passing between two cabins, a street that leads to Collado Carracedo. Proceed to the Mirador de Agua Seles, where you can Cicera see our final destination.
