Fontibre is a small town in the Brotherhood of Suso, just 5 km from Reinosa. Beautiful town and place, where the source of the Ebro River is traditionally located. In fact, the name Fontibre refers to the source of the Ebro, as it derives from the Latin Fontes Iberis ("sources of the Ebro") and is already cited by Pliny the Elder when he mentioned it. It is located near the Roman city of Julióbriga.

It doesn't matter when you visit, or at the time of year, because you will always appreciate and enjoy this little walk through the place.
