国立公園シエラデアラセナイピコスデアロシュのおすすめツーリングルート

Monesterioへ向かうサンティアゴ巡礼路の一部。

Pilgrims' Hostel, El Real

A short route, 8 km. Very easy, it follows marked and accessible paths. You must pass through two gates closed for animal crossings, which must be re-closed. Part of the route passes by a stream and waterfalls. The other part follows a fairly wide path with trees on either side and therefore receives a lot of sun. I don't think it's a good option in summer. In short, a beautiful route and a beautiful town.

Santa Olalla del Cala Castle is an impressive fortress located in the town of Santa Olalla del Cala, in the province of Huelva, Andalusia. This castle, of Muslim origin, was built in the 13th century and later renovated by the Christians after the Reconquista. The castle is located in a strategic position, on top of a hill, which allowed it to control the passage between Seville and the Sierra de Aracena. Its structure includes robust walls, defensive towers and a parade ground. The keep is one of the most outstanding elements of the castle, offering panoramic views of the surroundings. Today, Santa Olalla del Cala Castle is an important tourist attraction and a symbol of the historical heritage of the region. Guided tours are available that allow visitors to explore its corners and learn more about its history and architecture.

The mosque is built on a hill overlooking the town of Almonaster la Real. It is integrated into a complex that includes, in addition to the oratory, an old Muslim fortress attached to a bullring. It is a trapezoidal construction, with an ablution courtyard or sahn and a prayer room or haram. The prayer room consists of five naves of unequal width, with arcades that run transverse to the qibla. The fabric of the building is made of brick, granite blocks and masonry. Carry materials were used for its construction, such as funerary altars, Roman columns and capitals, as well as Visigothic fragments. It is a fascinating historical and architectural place that is worth a visit to appreciate its rich history and unique beauty.

The Castillo de las Torres is a fortress located in the municipality of Monesterio, in the province of Badajoz, Extremadura. It is believed that due to its typology it could date from the 15th or 16th century. This castle is located on a small rocky hill, near the Torres stream and the road that connects Monesterio with El Real de la Jara (old Camino de la Plata). Although it is in the municipality of Monesterio, it is only 1 kilometer from the town of El Real de la Jara in the province of Seville

This castle is located right on the border between Andalusia and Extremadura. Although its origin and purpose are not well defined, different studies confirm that it was built between the 15th and 16th centuries. From its three rounded towers it was possible to watch over the nearby Vía de la Plata.

The impressive castle of Santa Olalla del Cala sits on a hill 540 meters above sea level.
