Once inside and moving the ascent will pass the tree line at around 1900 metres above sea level where the rugged limestone rocks will leave the greenery behind. Looking down you will see the Mediterranean Sea in the distance and looking up you will soon be approaching the snow covered rocks. First snow comes in November and usually lasts until May the following year.
The red and gold Sahara dust brought over by the south east winds in spring time begins to colour the rocks and is said to herald the coming of the summer months. The views of the rocks themselves seem red and white with the effect of the evening lighting at this height and is glorious to see.
