The medieval or Roman bridge, as the Jarandillanos usually call it, is 35 meters long, has a huge eye with a semicircular arch and a smaller arch on one side that serves as a spillway when the Jaranda Gorge goes down with a lot of water, It sits on the enormous granite masses that are in the riverbed and has a half-meter petril with masonry ashlars.

I am not sure if this bridge is Roman but it is very old and beautiful. It is the best way to cross the Jaranda Gorge when starting a route on foot or by bicycle.
