Risco de los Claveles, Mountain summit in Sierra de Guadarrama, Spain
Risco de los Claveles rises to 2,387 meters above sea level, featuring granite crags and steep slopes within the Sierra de Guadarrama mountain range.
The mountain has served as a natural border between the provinces of Segovia and Madrid, marking territorial divisions in central Spain through centuries.
The mountain name translates to Carnation Crag, reflecting Spanish naming traditions of incorporating local flora into geographical landmarks.
Five established climbing routes lead to the summit, with the main trail covering 12.2 kilometers and requiring approximately 6 hours and 37 minutes to complete.
The peak experiences its highest climbing activity during June, when 50 percent of annual ascents occur due to favorable weather conditions.
