Ólvega is a municipality in Soria in the community of Castilla y León. Its origin dates back to the beginning of the 5th century, although even older archaeological remains have been found from two nearby Celtiberian forts. It is popularly known as "Niña del Moncayo", for being at the foot of this mountain, and also as "Second Numancia", for the popular revolt of 1474 to avoid rendering vassalage to the Count of Medinaceli.

Hinojosa del Campo is a small agricultural center of traditional houses that sprout among the wheat ears of the surrounding fields. From afar you can see the 10th century Berber tower that today forms part of the fortified Romanesque church of La Asunción de Nuestra Señora, from the 12th century. This curious temple has another tower that preserves its Romanesque characteristics.

In Pozalmuro we find the bar closed, we have little to do and a storm is also threatening, we fill the kettles with water and begin the ascent of the Sierra del Madero, the mountain pass of the day to jump the Iberian System and cross the Duero basin to the great valley of the Ebro. The climb is a cycle path with quite a slope, it has some studs to avoid the destruction of runoff and maintain the quality of the surface but they require extra effort on each step. The hard slope ends at an extraordinary viewpoint with signs of the landscape, the views are magnificent. Moncayo (2,314 m) is an imposing mass, the roof of the Soria mountains and the highest peak of the Iberian System. We follow the milestones of the natural path down a descent with a couple of delicate curves for the gravel wheels on the loose stone and then a well-conditioned and fun path in a holm oak forest of great environmental quality. The sky turns into hell and we arrive at the town of Muro when the raindrops turn into hail balls, luckily the bar is open here. In Muro is the site of the Roman city of Augustóbriga and in the bar room they have posters highlighting the notoriety of the place. The Roman town was decisive in the Roman conquest and control of the towns that lived in the mountain slopes of Moncayo. The bad weather is persistent and we decided to finish the stage in Ágreda, an interesting town of three cultures on the slopes of Moncayo. At Hostal Doña Juana they are welcoming and kind to cyclists, even when they arrive soaked and their bikes are muddy. Before dinner there is time to see more towers, palaces, convents, stately homes and stroll through the Moorish quarter, passing through medieval gates with original battlements or in the shape of a horseshoe arch, such as the Puerta del Agua, from the 8th century, the oldest construction of the architectural heritage of Ágreda.

Just as you enter the town of Hinojosa del Campo, from afar, you can see its tower that acts as a flag for the entire town. Separately, the church of Iglesia de la Asunción de Nuestra Señora also stands.

There is a hotel and numerous shops and supermarkets where you can shop

Ólvega is a crossroads of roads and nearby converging regions: La Rioja, Aragón, Navarra and Castilla y León, to which it belongs. Located between the Sierra del Moncayo (2315 meters), the Sierra del Madero (1652 m) and the Sierra de Toranzo. The Gothic-style Parish Church of Santa María la Mayor stands out

The climb is certainly hard, but almost 100% cyclable. And once up, the views are incredible, especially if like us you are lucky enough to see it at sunset.
