Seven Peaks
I think as I already said once at the time in the corner Seven Peaks, it's certainly my favorite mountain, with its slopes in the village of Cercedilla and even though I was not born there I feel like I was. I grow up there, I spent my youth and I met my first love, yes that same one you never forget even though you are very happy now and in this environment it is my desire that my ashes are spread around here in my last trip. This time, we left the car in the parking lot of the station and we took the funicular from Cercedilla to the Navacerrada port. Starting the ascent from where the funicular leaves you to the spot in Arias is a bit tiring.
Once we were above the harbor, our intention was to take the chairlift that skips the Telegraph track, but just our luck, that day it did not work so we had to go walking and in spite of this I give thanks because I got pictures of Peñalara massif that if it had not been given this circumstance I would not have gotten. The climb to the first peak was difficult and tedious because we found very soft snow, and with every step it became harder and harder. It took over an hour to get there. The views were still spectacular, Peñalara, Malaciosa, Stack of Wheat, The Peñota etc. Once there, depending on our skills as mountaineers, things could be made the easy or the difficult way. We chose the first one and continue up the gully between the third and fourth peak, so from there through open field and with snow up to our knees we went down to the Schmit to continue to the port of Fuenfria, the Roman road, meadows and Cercedilla again.
