Torre de los Horcados Rojos, Mountain summit in Picos de Europa, Spain.

The Torre de los Horcados Rojos rises to 2,506 meters within the Macizo Central range, featuring limestone formations and multiple climbing routes.

Cartographers Guillermo Schulz and Casiano del Prado documented this peak in their 1855 maps, establishing its presence in early Spanish mountaineering records.

The mountain's classification as 'Torre' follows regional naming traditions that distinguish between different peak types including Pico, Peña, Tiro, and Aguja.

The summit connects to the Fuente Dé cable car station through marked trails PR-23 and PR-24, requiring a 90-minute hike from the upper station.

The southern face contains multiple climbing paths, including a notable route established in 1958 with a technical grade of M.D.inf (V+).
