Cabañas del Castillo is a spectacular place located within the Villuercas-Ibores-Jara Geopark, dominated by high rock formations and gorges. The Cabañas castle is of Muslim origin but was later occupied by the Knights of Trujillo and Calatrava. A short ride off the bike, but highly recommended for seeing incredible views between the Sierra de la Ortijuela and Sierra del Alcornocal and the gorge below curved by the Almonte River.

An incredible fortress rose from the rocky cliffs. Muslim fortress from the 12th century, built to monitor and control the trade route between the Sierra de Ortijuela and the Berzocana river valley. The views are spectacular.
