El Castillio (663 m a.s.l., Fuerteventura)

About peak El Castillio

Španělsko

Vrchol El Castillio was added here by Jiří Králík and info was completed by Martin Matějka.

One of the bigger challenges on the island in terms of technical difficulty of the ascent. The summit is a pointed tower, there is no trail leading here, so the line of ascent is up to each climber. You can then continue to another tower to the southwest, or along a sharp ridge south to Cardón 695m above sea level.
