Καλή θέα του Circo de Gredos.

Circo de Gredos, a cirque formed by a glacier, covers approximately 33 hectares. The barren, rocky, high-mountain landscape of this cirque is spectacular and one of the absolute highlights of the Central System. To the north, at the foot of the Almanzor, lies the Laguna Grande lake.

From this point it is difficult to see that it is a circus, but it is breathtakingly beautiful.

In addition to its extensive heritage, Arenas de San Pedro is a tourist attraction for its famous Eagle Caves, discovered in 1963 and located six kilometers from the town. In its town center, highlights include the Castle of the Triste Condesa, with its large Keep; the 16th-century Gothic Church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, with its splendid bell tower; and the palace of Infante Don Luis de Borbón. Also a must-see is the 16th-century Sanctuary of San Pedro de Alcántara, declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1972. Located three kilometers from Arenas, it was renovated in the 18th century following the directives of architect Ventura Rodríguez, who built a magnificent funerary chapel. A thornless rosebush grows in the sanctuary's garden, which, according to legend, is a miraculous work of Saint Peter of Alcántara. The Royal Chapel Museum displays interesting collections of liturgical goldsmithing.

The Old Bridge of El Barco de Ávila, also known as the Medieval Bridge, is one of the most representative symbols of this town in Ávila. It crosses the Tormes River and connects the historic center with the old communication route to Castile and León. Although its current structure is medieval (12th–13th centuries), it is believed to have been built on Roman foundations.

The Walls of Ávila are an impressive medieval fortification that surrounds the old town of Ávila, in Castile and León. These walls, built in the 11th century, are one of the best-preserved walled enclosures in Spain and were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985.

Aside from archaeological evidence pointing to a primitive fence from the Late Antiquity (5th century) period, which would have enclosed a small space, the wall is essentially medieval. With a perimeter of 2,516 m (encompassing an area of 33 hectares), 87 towers or towers, 9 gates and 2 gatehouses, and 2,500 merlons, Ávila's wall is the best-preserved walled enclosure in the world.

This bridge was built to facilitate crossing the Adaja River and connect the Roman city of Ávila with the opposite bank. Although only the hidden abutments on the edges of the original Roman bridge remain, the bridge visible today dates back to the 12th century.
