The Barranco de la Hoz, also known as Barranco de la Virgen de la Hoz, is a magical enclave in the province of Guadalajara, within the Alto Tajo Natural Park. This place, carved over the centuries by the Gallo River, presents a spectacular reddish canyon, one of the most beautiful in the Iberian Peninsula and the most visited in the Alto Tajo region.

Here, legends and nature intermingle to create a landscape with a unique magic. Barranco de la Hoz is located just 15 kilometers from Molina de Aragón, between Corduente and Ventosa.

Viewpoint with aerial views of a geological formation caused over time by the erosion of the Gallo River. True sculptures and reddish rock formations have been formed in a fluvial canyon, leaving behind some of the most impressive gorges in this Natural Park.
