The Alto de San Antón marks the high point after the climb from Buiza, with the jagged Forcadas de San Antón rock formations visible ahead. From here, the descent toward Poladura de la Tercia begins. It's easy to get confused at this point and head toward Rodiezmo — pay close attention to the arrows.

Just past the third rocky outcropping, the path continues straight toward Rodiezmo. The camino itself turns left. The last section into Poladura is rough going — a steep, uneven slog on loose ground. San Martín de la Tercia is the village just before Poladura, and there are several easily recognizable paths connecting the two. The road between them is short with little traffic.

The path from the top

The way from the Alto is the only track I saw. It’s on an old road bed and clearly marked. The left turn is at the second concrete building on the left. Both buildings have directional arrows. Once you are on the gravel road from San Martin, look for concrete buildings on your right for the trampled grass and Camino sign that leads to Poladura. On a clear day this is a glorious walk!
