In addition to its extensive heritage, Arenas de San Pedro is a center of tourist interest for its famous Cuevas del Águila, discovered in 1963 and located six kilometers from the town.

In its urban center, the Triste Condesa castle stands out, with a large Torre del Homenaje; the 16th century Gothic church of Our Lady of the Assumption, with a splendid bell tower; and the palace of the Infante Don Luis de Borbón. It is also essential to visit the sanctuary of San Pedro de Alcántara, from the 16th century, declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1972. Located three kilometers from Arenas, it was renovated in the 18th century following the guidelines of the architect Ventura Rodríguez, who erected a magnificent funerary chapel . In the sanctuary's garden a thornless rose bush grows, which according to legend is the miraculous work of San Pedro de Alcántara. Interesting collections of liturgical metalwork are exhibited in the Royal Chapel Museum.

Interesting city, capital of the region of the same name and the third largest population in the province, after Ávila and Arévalo. Starting point to visit the Sierra de Gredos regional park.

But the city itself also offers several attractions: don't leave without visiting the castle of Condestable Dávalos, the palace of Infante Don Luis de Borbón, the church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, the medieval bridge and without taking a dip in the pools. natural areas of the Arenal River, located 1 kilometer from the town center.
