Canchal de la Ceja, Mountain summit in Sierra de Béjar, Spain.
The Canchal de la Ceja reaches an elevation of 2,427 meters, featuring steep rocky slopes and characteristic snowfields on its northern face.
This peak has served as a natural boundary marker between the provinces of Ávila and Salamanca since the establishment of Spanish territorial divisions.
Local mountaineering groups maintain several traditional climbing routes to the summit, passing knowledge from generation to generation about safe ascent paths.
The most accessible route starts at Plataforma del Travieso, situated 10 kilometers from Candelario, requiring approximately two hours of climbing to reach the top.
The mountain contains one of the largest natural lakes in the Sierra de Gredos system, formed by ancient glacial activity at its base.
