A relatively easy and simple climb with the fantastic roc of the east face of Urriellu but with scarce equipment. It´s a route where the pitches aren´t very difficult but where the physical condition starts to be important because of his 350 meters of climb. The Cepeda route it´s ideal for people with climbing experience who want´s to enjoy spending the day climbing the Naranjo.

The first pitches are very varied, with slabs, walls and dihedrals where the difficulty grows until whe arrive to the fourth pitch, a vertical wall where we will find big holes with a lot of grip and some fantastic views. After this, we will arrive to an easy and less vertical climbing transition zone. Finally, in the last pitches we will starts to win verticality again and the difficulty grows a little until whe arrive to the famous "rompe tobillos" (break ankles) a small 5 meters section of V+. We still have 100 meters of easy climb. After 350 meters of climb in one of the best limestone in the world we will reach the summit.
