Resbaladero de Lunada, Historical timber slide in Soba, Spain.

The Resbaladero de Lunada features a stone foundation supporting a beech wood channel system designed for transporting logs down steep mountain slopes.

Austrian engineer Wolfgang Mucha constructed this 1,700-meter timber slide in 1791 to supply wood for the Royal Cannon Factory of La Cavada.

The structure represents Spanish naval engineering advancement, enabling efficient timber transportation for shipbuilding and weapons manufacturing during the empire's expansion.

Visitors reach the site through the road leading to Lunada ski station, with remaining foundations visible along the mountainside path.

The slide system incorporated deceleration ramps and water channels to control log movement, preventing damage to both materials and workers.
