Description

Pila de los Muchachos descends steeply to begin( it's best to scout this as the top can be very dangerous - walking is ok!). After the initial steeps, the route descends towards Arroyo Primera. This section is super fun and very scenic but there are several steep, loose and dangerous downhills, so pay close attention and don't be surprised if there are a few hike-a-bike downhill sections.
