Hiking
The castle of Curiel stands on a rocky hill, at a high point in the province of Valladolid that controls the Duero Valley and, at the foot of the hill, the town that gives its name to the castle. The castle stands on a hill next to the Horcajo stream, which flows into the Duero.

Imposing fortification built on a rocky hill overlooking the Duero Valley and the town of Curiel. It is the oldest castle in the province of Valladolid, as it was built on top of an old Roman castle. Although only small vestiges of the wall and the four gates remain today, its original walls probably date from the 7th century.
