In the village of Lanuza, flowing into the reservoir of the same name, is the Rutaviesas ravine, which is practically dry due to its small catchment basin, so we can do it outside the thawing seasons. Thanks to the fact that the ravine is not very boxed in, it has a variety of escapes.
Approach
After the Escarrilla tunnel, turn right across the dam in the direction of Lanuza. Just before reaching the village we cross a ravine (end of the ravine), where we can park between the ravine and the village. On foot, go around the village at the top until you reach the start of the P.R.Hu 195, which zigzags uphill until you cross the ravine (R-11). Continue along the well-marked path until you reach the end of the trees, where the path turns off to the right and we turn left to finish going up the river, which originates from the union of several ravines.
