Castile and León walks

Under the pretext of hunting for frogs, set off to discover "la Dorada" (the "Golden City"), one of the most spectacular Renaissance cities in Europe. There are many monuments to visit along this route, some of which charge an entrance fee. To fully enjoy the atmosphere of this city, even if visits are no longer possible, you can do this tour at night, with a break for dinner around the Plaza Mayor.

This very short round trip hike takes you through an extremely narrow gorge. A small stream has cut through the mountain at an impressive height (100 metres), carving out a very narrow passage: you have to bend down to get through in some places. You will see vultures on the cliffs and a metal sculpture of a vulture by the side of the path.

A pleasant little path that runs alongside the river and through the trees, offering cool shade in summer. It offers superb views of the village nestled at the foot of the Sierra de Gredos.

Free parking is available in the public car park at the start of the walk. Walk along the canal in the shade of the trees and cross the bridge to admire the lock. Return via the other bank of the canal to the water retention basin. Take the pedestrian crossing to enter the old town and visit the cathedral. Then return to the car park.
