In the high mountains
North of the Cañete district, where the Serranía is highest, stand its two tallest summits: Collado Bajo, at 1,841 m, and Ceja de la Umbría del Oso, at 1,822. Villages lie below in the valleys, at 1,200 or 1,300 m; Zafrilla, at 1,418, is the highest nearby.
The Natural Park guide calls it a vantage point: above, on one side, are the valley of the Veredilla rento, an isolated farmstead in the hills, and Prado Redondo, and on the other the Recloba stream and Tierras Viejas, stony slopes with very old Spanish junipers.
