Facts and practical information

The peak Valdecebollas is an elevation of the mountain Palentina, in the foothills of the Cantabrian mountain range, in the orographic knot of La Cebollera, or Macizo de Valdecebollas. This massif forms a buttress to the S of the Sierra de Híjar, also known on this southern slope as "Sierra de Peñalabra", as this summit is the most characteristic from this perspective.

At the top is the so-called "Torreón", a small cylindrical stone tower with a plaque, a letterbox and a geodesic vertex. At this point since 1965 a mass is celebrated on the first Sunday of August, organized by the residents of Barruelo and Brañosera, attended by mountaineers from Campoo and La Pernía.
