The Sierra de Híjar is a mountain range of the Cantabrian Mountains System, located in the Province of Palencia and the Autonomous Community of Cantabria in northern Spain.

Geography

The range is {{convert|24|km|mi}} long, and runs in a west-northwest to east-southeast direction. The highest peaks in the range are concentrated in the {{convert|18|km|mi}} northeastern to central section. From there the altitude declines. The rangehas a maximum width of {{convert|5200|m|mi}}, between Penaguda and Sel de la Fuente.

The range's highest point is at the peak of Cuchillón, although its exact altitude differs by source, including: {{convert|2174|m|ft}} according to the National Geographic Institute of Spain (Instituto Geográfico Nacional); and {{convert|2222|m|ft}} according to Francisco Hernández-Pacheco and in other publications by the same National Geographic Institute. {{Sfn|Hernández-Pacheco|1944|p=44|loc=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/807360644}}[1]

This system marks the boundary between the regions of Campoo in Cantabria and La Pernia in Palencia of Castile and León. It is one of the southernmost foothills of the Cantabrian Mountains range, and the last to rise over {{convert|2000|m|ft}} in elevation.[2]

Main peaks

The highest points are concentrated in the central sector, including Tres Mares and Cueto Manin. The northwestern sector contains the long spine of Peña Labra and an access point to the summit from Polaciones. The southeastern sector, extending from Sestil to Alto de Hoyos, is the lowest and is called the Cinto Brotherhood.

Main heights, northwest to southeast.[2]
Name, altitudeCoordinates Notes
Peña Labra, 2029 m43|02|44|N|4|25|55|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}At this peak there is a triangulation station of the first order. It ends a characteristic plateau, which joins the Fuente del Chivo with a 2000 meter boundary.
Tres Mares, 2171 m43|02|16|N|4|24|14|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}There is a terrace at the top that acts as a great viewpoint.
Las Hoyas, 2106 m43|01|50|N|4|23|39|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}
Cuchillón, 2174–2222 m43|01|36|N|4|23|27|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}Highest point in the range. It is also referred to as "Canchal de la Muela" and "Peña del Pando", or "Rock of Pando", due to the summit's flat shape.
Cotomañinos o Guzmerones, 2144 m43|00|35|N|4|22|42|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}This point and the previous point form the glacial basin of Hoyo Sacro and Guzmerones.
Cueto Mañín, 2122 m43|00|19|N|4|22|28|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}Peña de las Agujas rises in this point's southern slope.
Valdecebollas, 2143 m42|58|00|N|4|21|54|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}A ridge to the south of the range's main line.
Sestil, 2065 m42|58|20|N|4|20|53|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}Between this point and Cueto Manin lies Sel de la Fuente.
Peña Rubia, 1937 m42|57|58|N|4|18|00|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}Forms the long crest that births Camesa.
Cuesta Labra, 1951 m42|58|00|N|4|16|55|W|type:mountain_region:ES|display=inline}}On its north side are the glacial basins of Bucer and Vitor. It binds to the east with Peña Ensillada towards Somahoz.[3]

Toponymy

According to cartographic studies by the National Geographic Institute of Spain and other works, the name "Peña Labra" is often used to refer to this system, especially as seen from the south side.{{Sfn|Alcalde Crespo et al.|1983|p=15|loc=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/18106988}} From this perspective, the top of Peña Labra appears most prominently, though it is not the highest in the system. However, all previously existing mapping, including the first series of the National Geographic Institute, or those of Francisco Coello and Quesada and Pascual Madoz, refers to this mountain as "Sierra de Híjar."
