Manqueospese Castle, also known as "Althoughospese," is located in the municipality of Mironcillo, Ávila, at an altitude of 1,360 meters, overlooking the Amblés Valley. This castle is an example of a European mountain fortress, with strong walls adapted to the rocky terrain. Construction of the castle began in the 15th century by the Dávila family and was completed by Esteban Dávila in the 16th century. The castle is surrounded by legends, including stories of unrequited love and rivalries between knights. Its name, "Manqueospese," is said to come from the expression "although it weighs on you," which is related to these legends. From its privileged position, the castle offers stunning views of the Amblés Valley and the walls of Ávila. Although it is currently in ruins, restoration and cleaning work are underway.

According to legend, the castle would be built by Don Raimundo, to communicate with his beloved Doña Guiomar, locked in the balcony that crowns the door of the Rastro (in Ávila, access through the Dávila house), given the prohibition of her father. for the couple to continue their love affairs. Given the paternal attitude, Don Raimundo exclaimed: "I'll see her manqueospese" or "I'll see her even though she weighs", and it was then that he built his castle, from which he apparently communicated with his beloved Guiomar.

Small town that is located in what is called the Valle de Amblés and that is a few kilometers from its capital, Ávila. From the core, you can begin to see the first forms of the Sierra de Paramera and Gredos.

The Muñotello roll symbolizes the jurisdictional independence obtained by the town with respect to the Villatoro council in 1733, during the reign of Felipe V. The construction is made of carved granite, it is five meters high and represents the sovereignty of the town of Muñotello to administer Justice. The prisoners were tied to the stone pillory during the trial and depending on the sentence they were stoned to death or released.

The unique granite landscape is the result of the mineral composition, climatic changes and the weathering of the rock surfaces, giving rise to suggestive modeling forms. The most striking process is the slabs, the boats, the corridors and alleys and the granular disintegration, creating an authentic labyrinth of stone sculptures. To the west, at the headwaters of the Adaja River, the white reliefs of La Serrota emerge. The path follows the ridge and collides with the top pyramid of Zapatero in a clear hill where the ascent to the top begins on the southwest face. The ascent is marked with stone milestones. The ice and the amount of snow will determine the technical level of the ascent. First there is a rocky step to a wide and comfortable shoulder, where the final attack begins through a channel that leads to the access passage to the geodesic vertex through a kind of tunnel. The views from the top of the remaining section of the rope are breathtaking between large granite domes and giant speedboats, but it is actually easier than the previous section and almost all descent. The descent of the peak is along the east face, to a pass where the Path of Zapatero climbs from the left from Sotalvo.
