Valdecebollas, Mountain summit in Montaña Palentina, Spain

The Valdecebollas summit reaches an elevation of 2143 meters within the Sierra de los Ángeles range in the Cantabrian Mountains of northern Spain.

Ancient sandstone blocks with central holes, found at the base of Valdecebollas, indicate the presence of millstone production dating back five centuries.

Every first Sunday of August since 1965, residents from Barruelo and Brañosera gather at the peak for a traditional mass celebration.

The ascent starts from Brañosera, following a path through El Golobar at 1840 meters to reach the triangulation station at the summit.

The mountain forms the northern slope of the Covarrés glacier cirque, where water disappears into the Sel de la Fuente sinkhole and resurfaces at Cueva del Cobre.
