A pleasant well marked walk to a large summit area
I parked on the main road near the pedestrian bridge. This bridge spanned the high point/pass between Malaga and Granada provinces, and looked like it once supported a train line. I took the bridge over the main road and picked up the path to the right of a shed:
The steep path up the hill was well marked and then levelled out with post markers to show the way:
The walk to the summit is just over a kilometer, and once there offered a large potential activation area. A convenient post provided support for my Sotapole.
I had 22 QSOs on 20m, then decided to try the 40m linked dipole option on 15m (which should in theory be close to resonance on this band). I was surprised it worked so well, and had a further 6 QSOs on 15m, including my first transatlantic SOTA QSO with KF9D.
