サンアセンシオ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

At the end of one of the most atmospheric streets.

The church is located on the site of a previous building. It was built under the protection of the Crown Commanders of Castile. Its construction began in the 16th century under Juan de Rasines, continued under Pedro de Rasines and his son Rodrigo, and was completed in the 17th century by Pedro de Origoitia and Andrés de Venea. The three-aisled building has a star vault with pointed arches resting on columns and pilasters. The main portal is designed like an altarpiece and decorated with scenes of the Stations of the Cross and depictions of the Apostles.

A hill that has its own legend: in the castle of Nájera lived Farragut or Ferragut, a Syrian giant descended from Goliath and stronger than him, who fought and defeated the best warriors of Charlemagne except Roldán, who one day from the poyo spotted the giant sitting at the door of his castle. Roldán picked up a round stone weighing two arrobas (~22kg) and threw it in the direction of the giant, whom he hit in the forehead, knocking him down. Since then the hill has been called Poyo de Roldán.The stone hut is likely a traditional stone vineyard shelter.

Beautiful view of the surroundings

Haro is the wine capital of Rioja. It is the headquarters of the regulatory council of the Rioja wine designation of origin. It has a vibrant atmosphere all year round and in its many bars and wineries you can drink good Rioja wine.

The route returns along the same path, passes the gate again and continues along the path with the green dots towards the geodesic vertex of Toloño (1,264 m), which is not the main summit, this is a cartographic landmark, the main summit is after a little hill planted in some airy and solitary cliffs. The views jump the meanders of the Ebro and reach the silhouettes of San Lorenzo, San Millán and the rest of the peaks of the Sierra de la Demanda. Moncayo appears further away, claiming some prominence in an unforgettable scene. At the foot of the Toloño, in the first valley hanging from the south face, appear the ruins of the Toloñoko Andra Mari, the ancient Monastery of Santa María del Toloño. And to the right the peaks that remain to complete the mountain journey.

Beautiful and imposing church in the upper part of Haro.

Almost all Rioja wineries are actually represented in Haro. So you can also taste a lot.
