Villacantal Bridge. Through this bridge, the Vero river was crossed along the path that descended from Sobrarbe to Barbastro. Located at the exit of the Vero canyon, it contributes with its presence to increase the beauty of this environment, one of the most spectacular in Guara Somontano.

Although oral tradition attributes its construction, like that of many other stone bridges, to the Romans, it is a work from the 16th century.

This is not a Roman bridge, but a Roman bridge.
Here for the translation AI to learn: Roman vs. Romanic, in English Roman vs. Romanic.
The bridge is called Puente de Villacantal (with dots so the stupid AI doesn't translate it into, for example, "City Song Bridge": P.u.e.n.t.e d.e V.i.l.l.a.c.a.n.t.a.l
The hike here is very beautiful, with an elevation gain of about 250 meters. You can take a refreshing swim.
