Photo Tour | A Mountain, a Refuge

One of the things I enjoy the most is to go hiking, a long time ago my friend Ira invited me to visit a mountain full of pines and quartz veins in Los Teques, Edo. Miranda, she had moved to a very quiet neighborhood, surrounded by mountains and full of nature. Many times I postponed the visit due to lack of time but this past week I was able to visit her, visit her house and see this beautiful mountain where we had a very relaxed tour, enjoying the landscape and collecting quartz, and we closed the afternoon with a golden brooch eating a delicious Chinese style rice that we cooked in the house before leaving.

At the time of the meal I completely forgot to take pictures, I can only say that it was very tasty, so much so that we repeated at least twice, then I'll give you a tutorial on how to prepare it.

We left the neighborhood and walked about 500mts until we reached a street that led us to the mountain road.

The entrance road to the mountain is paved and surrounded by many bamboo bushes.

We were welcomed by a cow with her very nice little steer in less than 400mts.

A little white dog accompanied us part of the way very happy and wagging his little tail. Can you see it in the picture?

When we arrived at the first stage of the mountain we turn to see the asphalted entrance where we begin our journey, we notice the bright color of the vegetation and the white cow mother of the steer.

As we entered the road we got different signs that have been put up by those who constantly visit and travel the mountain.

We have views of the mountains surrounding the neighborhood.

The longest straight-line climb up the mountain.

Although it is not common, sometimes you get trees that hinder the route.

One of the most vegetated passages of the route.

Passing underneath the pines you can appreciate the beautiful shapes that you can see in the branches and the pine nuts that hang down.

There are small bridges along the way to prevent some water-borne subsidence.

Other branches that draw interesting shapes.

There are many beautiful and dense trails.

Although there aren't many flowers, the ones I got on the way were very beautiful and colorful.

Here began the strongest climb on the mountain.

Here I am with this super view of the landscape.

You can see that bikers enjoy this route, there are many places for mountain biking or downhill riding.

At the end of the strongest ascent, we achieved this affirmation.

The proof of our visit.

And to finish, we arrived at the balcony.

To have this beautiful, green view. <br /><center><hr/><em>Posted from my blog with <a href='https://wordpress.org/plugins/steempress/'>SteemPress</a> : http://camiloferrua.vornix.blog/2018/08/11/photo-tour-a-mountain-a-refuge/ </em><hr/></center>
