Once you have entered the pine forest, you will pass right by Casa Galindo, on the edge of the Barranco de Las Mesas ravine. Then you will have to cross the ravine to continue your climb by the Chasna path, enjoying fantastic views of the summit. During the descent, you will meet the belvedere of Los Escurriales (Lunar Landscape) until you reach a path that passes by the Casa de Los Llanitos and will put you back on the path by which you climbed, thus allowing you to return to Vilaflor.
