'''Meeting Point for Valle Nevado and La Parva paths'''<br>
''Altitude: 3.550 AMSL | Km:0''
Upon reaching this area of the dam, you must continue on the path that descends the hillside in direction to the northeast, or in other words, to the creek and green valley.
'''Creek (Point 2)'''<br>
''Altitude: 3.425 AMSL | Km:1''
You will reach a small creek of crystal clear water (ok to drink), which is a good spot to fill up. After crossing the creek, the path begins to ascend. You must skip through rocks which during the winter will creep from under the snow. After 1,1km and a 90m altitude difference, you will reach the highest part of the hill: a nice overlook of the Cepo valley.
First Lookout Point (Point 3) Altitude: 3.512 AMSL | Km:2,1
From this point you can clearly see the Cepo river valley and the impressive glaciers of “El Plomo” on the background. The vegetated plateau on the Cepo river bed up the valley, belongs to “Piedra Numerada”, a very good spot for camping. Immediately after this flat, you will see rocky walls that mark its abrupt south border. You must continue on the path that now has a north direction and softly descends.
'''Detour to “Piedra Numerada” (Point 4)'''<br>
''Altitude: 3.407 AMSL | Km:3,8''
You have arrived to the wetlands of “Piedra Numerada”, a peaceful valley with plenty of water and vegetation. If you would like to go to the camping area you must abandon the path and walk towards the center of the wetland, where you will find good camping spots.
