Not too steep and not too high. a perfect climb for beginners. The path is in pretty good condition too. There’s a few signs saying “no entry” and that it’s owned by the military but no need to panic the area is safe and free to enter. The castle itself is closed off to the public but the views from outside it are spectacular. Also on the way down I’d recommend taking a detour to the fortress of Fajardo where you can see more of the old military bases and batteries

Cycled to the top, unfortunately the Castle is closed. There are signs in Spanish saying dangerous for cyclists. The views once you get to the top are fantastic. I can understand why the sign says dangerous for cyclists, the switch backs are fun but keep your ? on the road take care and enjoy the ride down

It’s a long climb but the views are worth it.

Nice for a short walk. Good views of the valley, surprisingly well taken care of.

The best views of Cartagena about 1000 ft above sea level. Very isolated, access the main trail up the mountain to the right of Navantia's main entrance. Just go around the gate that states "your not allowed" lol I did the paved switch back on a borrowed mountain bike, a good pair of running or walking shoes is also ideal.
