The locals more commonly refer to it as the climb to Cos pole. It’s not necessarily a pole, but an antenna located at the summit of the Gamonal area. The trail begins in Cos and you follow the road to Venta de Santa Lucía (Santa Lucía Inn). This building was a resting spot of cart drivers and walkers who were going or coming from other areas. The path you should take is just to the left of the inn. A few meters away starts the uphill climb which leads you to the pole, where you can see amazing panoramic views of the valley and the mountains. Of course, you might not be alone, as you may come across cows or horses grazing or in the stables. Please respect them: this is their territory. Follow the path on the left to go back down to Cos.
