Hotel's line Map

Steep line into a rocky gully. Due to the face location the area is really warm and often without much snow, better to take some old equipment! Walking is required for about 30 minutes being careful as the road is busy due to the sledge area close the hotel and restaurant. The line will be steep and narrow at the beginning. This means good technical skills are more than welcome as a mistake will make you fall into some rocks. Lack of snow is the main danger. At the middle of the line you will need to cross a road, then you will finish onto blue slope "Puerta de Elvira" bringing you back to the village.
