La Galana, Mountain summit in Sierra de Gredos, Spain
La Galana rises to an elevation of 2,563 meters, forming a notable peak within the Circo de Gredos mountain formation in central Spain.
Mountaineers have documented climbing routes on La Galana since the early 20th century, establishing it as a significant destination in Spanish alpinism.
Local shepherds from the valleys of Gredos maintain traditional grazing practices around the mountain, preserving centuries-old agricultural customs.
The ascent to La Galana requires technical climbing skills and proper equipment, with access from the Plataforma de Gredos parking area between June and October.
The mountain receives fewer than 15 climbers daily during peak season, offering solitude compared to the neighboring Almanzor peak with over 100 visitors.
