Qué duda cabe que una cumbre gana mucho cuando su cúspide está despejada y se puede disfrutar de la panorámica. Y qué mejor que los días de invierno, fríos pero nítidos, cuando el horizonte se acerca hasta casi poder tocarlo. En esta ocasión nos acercamos a la localidad navarra de Errea, perdida entre montañas, para subir una cota que antaño no tenía protagonismo pero que ahora está limpia.
Ubicación: Sierra de Measkoitz, Navarra.
Cima: Measkoitz (1.007m).
Duración: 1h y 45min.
Acceso: Partimos desde Errea, al que se accede en la carretera que va de Pamplona a Zubiri tomando un desvío a mano derecha.
11:30. Llegamos a una buena hora a Errea (797m), con la helada yendo a menos y con buena temperatura arriba.

LAS NOTAS (La escala es del 1 al 5):
DIFICULTAD: 1,5. Ruta con poco desnivel. Hay que encontrar el paso clave en el bosque.
BELLEZA DEL ITINERARIO: 3. Bonitos paisajes invernales.
IMPORTANCIA DE LA CUMBRE: 1.
Y ASÍ LO VIO MI PADRE: Mi partenaire me comenta que "fue una ruta para comprobar la desolación de los pueblos perdidos de Navarra".
Aquí tienen una cima más atractiva desde que la limpiaron de maleza.
Hace unos años era una odisea de pinchos llegar al vértice geodésico. También creo que hay un buzón en forma de cerdito que croe que ahora está mutilado.
Hola Roberto, gracias por el comentario. Efectivamente, antaño debía de ser una odisea llegar por la profusión de boj, mayormente. Por eso ahora es una cima que ha ganado puntos. Y el buzón está descabezado. Un saludo.
