Town on the Tranquera reservoir, on the Mesa River, where we find places to eat and sleep, and the second checkpoint on the Madrid to Barcelona route.

The La Tranquera Reservoir in Nuévalos is a spectacular place to enjoy nature and panoramic views. Inaugurated in 1959, the reservoir was designed to regulate the flow of the Piedra River and ensure the water supply in the region.

The geography of the town of Ibdes is marked by the Mesa River, which in its wake has created the various ravines and fertile lands that surround the town. Within the municipal area is the spectacular La Paradera waterfall, as well as the so-called Grotto of Wonders, a large cave full of ancient stalactites and stalagmites.

Beautiful Aragonese town

Nice views of Nuévalos and the Tranquera reservoir in the background, from the road reaching the town. If we are lucky enough to see the reservoir with its well-charged water reserves, we will see its spectacular emerald blue color. We will find fishermen, people bathing and a lot of fauna.

We are in the Monasterio de la Piedra Natural Park (not free), an idyllic place for nature lovers where we will find waterfalls, lakes, caves, beautiful walkways and more. The building itself is an old restored Cistercian monastery from the 13th century, where we can see the transition from Romanesque to Cistercian Gothic and where its spectacular cloister stands out.

We are in Munébrega, where the Church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción stands out, of course, in the Mudéjar style and from the 14th century. We can go to see the hermitage of San Cristóbal or the hermitage of Nuestra Señora del Mar y de la Cuesta or the beautiful pond that is in the surroundings with an age of more than 600 years. And if we want to play at getting lost in Munébrega, we can try to find the five Peirones that are scattered throughout the town.

We are in Ateca, a beautiful town in the Community of Calatayud where we can visit the Mudejar tower of the church of Santa María, dating from the 12th and 14th centuries, or the Ateca Fort, built on the remains of a castle of uncertain origin. . In Ateca we can take advantage to recover energy in one of its bars.
