The Zuheros viaduct crosses the embedded bed of the Bailón River. It has a length of 104 metres. Its structure is made of metal and is very similar to that of the Guadajoz River viaduct. A few metres away is the old Zuheros stop, a small building, very sober and functional. This building, smaller than the station, allowed the entry and exit of goods and passengers. A cobblestone in front of the façade served as a platform. From here you have a good view of the castle.

Clinging to a steep spur of rock you can see the Castillo Zuheros. From the viaduct it looks very impressive.

El Castillo de Zuheros is a historic fortress in the small municipality of Zuheros. The castle sits spectacularly on a rock and has become a landmark in the region. The castle's origins date back to the Moors in the 9th century. It was strategically built on a limestone cliff to control and defend the region. Its location made it almost impregnable.

The viaduct is a historic remnant of the old railway line and offers an elevated platform with unobstructed views of the surrounding landscapes. The section near Zuheros is particularly spectacular as the viaduct crosses a gorge through which the Bailón River flows. From here, Zuheros Castle rises majestically above the village, embedded in a rock. The castle seems to be one with the landscape as it is integrated directly into the limestone.

The view of Zuheros Castle from the viaduct is a perfect example of the unique combination of nature and history that characterizes the Córdoba region. It is a moment that makes every bike ride along the Vía Verde unforgettable.
