The ascent route to the Three Bishops, the best known and done in the area, is essential for anyone who wants to start meeting Ancares and discover the natural treasures that keep this land.
This tour will have the opportunity to ascend the peak ancares emblematic of Lugo, the three bishops, of 1792 meters of altitude, from which is produced an extraordinary panorama of the whole summit ridge, along with the beautiful Vega of Boyes, Porcarizas River Lagoon, livestock Perez .... giving a very clear idea and ideal of geography and relief in the region.
Finally, visit some of the most beautiful and idyllic as the mountains of Brego Campa and forest Cabanavella undoubtedly one of the most visual impact of this natural and are a must for visitors. We start
Ancares Refuge, located at an altitude of 1420 meters, and is an excellent vantage point from which we can contemplate a beautiful landscape. We follow the road tarmac at the beginning, until you reach a fork. We continued along the trail on the left that is gradually rising from open landscape of scrub, almost treeless.
Soon we passed by a fountain, while the broom began to appear and some oak, ash and holly. If we continue walking, we arrive at a small field with many broom and holly: the breeding of nettles, the first point of reference.
continue rising the way moderate to get to the Campa of the Three Bishops, where we will have extraordinary views of the main peaks of the mountains: the Three Bishops, Penedois, Pools, Evil Horn, Lanza and Mostalla. On the right we see Penarrubia the unmistakable silhouette.
Since the campaign began the ascent on a path that goes between broom and broom, to reach the base of the peak. Here begins the tough final climb without loss that leads to the summit of Three Bishops, which at 1792 meters can recreate the view with an extraordinary landscape left the main peaks of the mountains, in front of Ace Lake Ponds where Porcarizas River rises next to the Shack Perez, and right of the wonderful Vega Boyes Porcarizas leading us to Water Country and, as in Leon lands. The name of Three Bishops to legend, it was given as it was a meeting of bishops of the three neighboring dioceses Astorga, Leon and Lugo.
descend to get back to the field of three bishops and once there we turn left along a path that leads us into a beautiful forest of holly, hazel and oak to leave us in the Golada da Vara, where you get to the Brego beautiful countryside with a mountain refuge.
After relaxing with the visual spectacle of the valley, we go back and this time by a straight and low and broad in a forest of holly, hazel, ash, oak, chestnut ... It is without doubt one of most beautiful roads of Ancares Cabanavella called road that leads to some huts, the remains of timber holdings the area years ago. We ended up in the original track that will take us back to the shelter of Ancares.
