Beautiful square and typical castle

A very pleasant little village with a beautiful castle. A visit inside is highly recommended; they store your bikes in the courtyard :)

A castle worth visiting.

Extraordinary monastery and castle!

This route is based on the Rompepiernas cycle-tourism event in its short version called “Rompepiernas corta”. The route links several loops starting from Sos del Rey Católico, so it can be done as proposed or only part of the proposed ones. It begins in the municipality of Sos del Rey Católico where we will ascend to the Puerto de Sos along the old road, then we will descend towards Sos and to the bottom of the valley. Then the route goes to Navardún to take the detour to Urriés and the Puerto de Cuatro Caminos. Once we reach the top of the port we will go down towards Undués de Lerda to later make the second climb to the Puerto de Sos. Once we reach the top of the port we will descend, this time, towards Castilis-car, to make the third and last climb to the Puerto de Sos, but this time on the southern slope, passing through Sofuentes and Mamillas. From the top of the port, we will continue towards the old port and road of Sos to end the route in this monumental and medieval town.

Originally a Roman fortress in a strategic location, the fortress is both a castle and a palace, although it was originally built as a court building to fulfil a military function. Since the 13th century, the Castle of Olite has been called the Palace of the King of Navarre.

The castle palace of Olite served as the residence of the kings of Navarre until the union of Navarre with Castile in the 16th century. The complex has been a listed monument since 1925.
