The Camino Real de Guadalupe by bike, especially the Oropesa – Alcañizo section: Approximate distance: 24–25 km (depending on the exact route). Terrain: rural tracks and roads, with some paved sections. Difficulty: Moderate, with no major mountain passes on this section. Surroundings: Toledo countryside, cereal fields, and pastures. Oropesa is notable for its castle and Renaissance palace (now a Parador).

The Count's Palace of Oropesa, located in the province of Toledo, is an architectural gem with a rich history and great heritage value. The Old Palace (or Doña Elvira Palace): in the Mudejar Gothic style, built in the 14th century. The New Palace: in the Renaissance style, built in the 15th century. It stands out for its original coffered ceiling, its balconies with the coat of arms of the Counts of Oropesa, and a large interior courtyard that was even used as a bullring. Together with the adjacent castle, it forms a complex declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1923. In 1931, it was incorporated into the National Parador Network, becoming the first Parador built on a historic building.

The Archbishop's Bridge is a municipality in Toledo that takes its name from its beautiful Gothic bridge with 11 arches that crosses the waters of the Tagus River. The town is famous for its ceramics, and together with Talavera de la Reina, it is the largest pottery center in Spain.

The Archbishop's Bridge is a magnificent example of medieval engineering. The bridge was built to allow trade and pilgrims to cross the Tagus River in 1380, but was further widened in the 18th century to allow passage after floods.

This section of the Camino Real de Guadalupe joins the city of Oropesa with El Puente del Arzobispo, crossing a very characteristic and picturesque landscape from La Mancha.

This great bridge with eleven eyes over the Tagus River gives its name to the Toledo town in which it is located, although the left bank of the river is already considered Cáceres and forms part of the municipality of Villar del Pedroso. It was built between 1383 and 1388 by order of the Archbishop of Toledo Pedro Tenorio.

It is worth slowing down when passing through Calzada de Oropesa to admire the stately houses that are dotted along its streets. The Convent of the Agustinas Recoletas also stands out, known for the embroideries and ceramics that its nuns make.
