Together with the Sierra de Gata, the Ambroz Valley, the Jerte and La Vera, <a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/tag\/hurdes\/\">The Hurdes<\/a> is one of the 5 regions (although it is not an administrative region) in Extremadura that occupy the southern slopes of the <a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/tag\/central-system\/\">Central System<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curiously, contrary to what we might think in a country where most of the storms enter from the north and northeast, the southern slopes of the <a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/tag\/central-system\/\">Central System<\/a> is the one that receives the greatest accumulation of rainfall. Thus, we find ourselves in a territory of the so-called rainy Spain, with a Mediterranean climate and Atlantic influence. A territory populated by large extensions of pine trees that every summer prays to be kept safe from the devastating fires that threaten the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although, as we have already mentioned, the Rongiero, Mingorro or Mont\u00f3n de Trigo is the highest peak of <a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/tag\/hurdes\/\">The Hurdes<\/a>is not the highest in the area. This honour is held by La Hastiala (1,735m), in the Sierra de Francia (province of <a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/tag\/salamanca\/\">Salamanca<\/a>), just 4 kilometres away as the crow flies. In fact, Rongiero is part of the Pe\u00f1a de Francia mountain range, more specifically, of the La Granjera or Canchera mountain range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The route we propose was done in October 2019, a year in which the summer drought lasted until the middle or end of October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SUMMARY:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Circular route from Ladrillar to Cerro Rongiero, Mingorro or Mont\u00f3n de Trigo. From Ladrillar, first along paths and then along a well-marked trail, you climb up to the Portilla del Samoral. From here, following the ridge to the east, you reach Cerro Rongiero. The descent is more difficult, following the rope in a SE direction, passing the Collado de las Fuentes pass, the Piquito del Moro and the Col de Valleverde pass, where the descent proper begins until it joins the Alfonso XIII route. Following this short distance path (PR-CC-212) we return to Ladrillar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MAP:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/rutas\/rutas.php?&amp;ruta=rongiero\" allow=\"fullscreen\" width=\"100%\" height=\"400\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"738\" height=\"498\" src=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/perfil-rongiero.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-30155\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/perfil-rongiero.jpg 738w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/perfil-rongiero-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/perfil-rongiero-150x101.jpg 150w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/perfil-rongiero-696x470.jpg 696w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/perfil-rongiero-622x420.jpg 622w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/perfil-rongiero-600x405.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 738px) 100vw, 738px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DOWNLOADABLE:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4><a style=\"color:#c45c25\" download=\"Rongiero(travesiapirenaica).GPX\" href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/rutas\/mapa\/gpx-geojson\/rongiero.gpx\">&gt; Download Track<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">HOW TO GET THERE:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>See in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.es\/maps\/place\/10625+Ladrillar,+C%C3%A1ceres\/@40.4664273,-6.2282689,16z\/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0xd3e62a77161e743:0x8f471465aca201f9!8m2!3d40.4657426!4d-6.2246537?hl=es\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Google Maps<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#eeeeee\"><h3>Technical specifications:<\/h3><p><strong><u>Distance:<\/u><\/strong> 15,7kms.<br><strong><u>Unevenness:<\/u> <\/strong> 1.100m.<br><strong><u>Timetable:<\/u><\/strong> about 7 to 7.5 hours.

Cross Ladrillar heading west until almost the end of the village. By a small house with rubbish containers you see a slope on your right hand side, which leads past a house with a vine-covered facade. Behind the house you find an ascending path that leads to a track (0h10min; 0,5kms) that you follow to the left. Soon the track ends at the bottom of a valley in an olive grove. Now, following a marked path between olive trees, you cross an area of scrubland and continue over another olive grove. The path comes to a wide path that ascends steeply to a track (0h25min; 1,2kms). Follow it to the right and turn left at the next junction. A few meters later you meet the ascending path (0h30min; 1,4kms). The path zigzags uphill through an impenetrable field of broom myrtle, rockrose and other bushes. It is best not to leave the path. The views towards the region of <a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/tag\/hurdes\/\">The Hurdes<\/a> are spectacular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-30124\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida-560x420.jpg 560w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida-265x198.jpg 265w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/01_subida-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Uphill path.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Some time later you pass a fork to a fountain (1h10min; 3,1kms), which you find some 200 metres further on.

Close by is the Pe\u00f1a de Francia (1,727m), on top of which sits a monastery and a telecommunications repeater. The descent on the other path is more difficult. It is noticeable that there are fewer people here and the path is not as well marked as on the way up. We descend from the summit heading south on rocky terrain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-30131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso-560x420.jpg 560w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso-265x198.jpg 265w, https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/08_descenso-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Descent of the Rongiero.
