    The restored trenches of 1936 are a perfect place to see the sunrise and also camp inside where the soldiers also used to call the bivouac or life zone! Also recommended to visit

    The Sierra de Alcubierre acts as the backbone of Los Monegros and given its strategic location, it played a major role during the Civil War, dividing Aragon in two.

    On the A-129 road from Leciñena to Alcubierre (Km. 34.6) take the detour that leads to the position of Monte Irazo where this point is located.
