The Pedro Bernardo Pass is one of the classic climbs in the Sierra de Gredos mountains, highly prized by cyclists and a regular feature of races like the Vuelta a España. First section: Up to the village (Pedro Bernardo), with gradients of 5-6%, a road in good condition, and spectacular views of the Tiétar Valley. Urban section: In the village, the gradient eases, even offering some flatter sections. Second section: After the village, the asphalt becomes rougher, and the toughest kilometer (7-8%) appears, followed by a "balcony" section with incredible views and a sustained 5% gradient to the summit.

It's a very quiet pass with hardly any traffic, especially in its final section. The eastern slope, which starts from Arenas De San Pedro, has two very distinct sections. The first, to the village of El Arenal, is very gentle and always runs under an extensive pine forest. When you reach El Arenal, in the village itself, the gradient increases, and then there are 6 km left with an average gradient of 7% and some 10% slopes. The views from the pass are beautiful and it exudes a spiritual tranquility. In summer, it's highly recommended to climb it early in the morning to take advantage of the cool morning air. The western slope connects with the climb to Puerto del Pico, and the climb begins in Ramacastañas. Although not as well-known as other passes in the Sierra de Gredos, I have to admit that I loved it.

The Puerto de Pedro Bernardo is the younger brother of the Puerto de Serranillos. Almost every time this port has been climbed in a professional race it is linked to the Puerto de Serranillos, only the second being considered a port. However, the Puerto de Pedro Bernardo is in itself a hill where you can go from the valley where the CL-501 road runs (where the town with the same name is located) to the valley of the Puerto de Pico, where Esteban del Valle and Mombeltrán are located. The chain with Serranillos is the most typical, as I said previously, although it is also worth chaining it with the Puerto de la Centenera or the Puerto del Pico. The road is rough, with hardly any shoulder and very little traffic. It is a very pleasant port to climb... as long as the heat is not suffocating.

This is one of the least known ports in the Sierra de Gredos, as the Vuelta a España has only climbed it once. It is a very pretty port, very typical of this area, as the slopes are moderate, the road is narrow and somewhat punished by the contrasts in temperatures, and there are many pine trees. Traffic is almost non-existent, especially after leaving behind the towns of El Arenal and El Hornillo.

It is probably the most important town in the southern area of Gredos. Its center is very lively, with several bars and restaurants where you can eat well and enjoy the summer afternoons. There are also several historical places to visit. It is a place that can be used as a base camp for various routes through this area of the Sierra de Gredos, full of passes and peaks, many of which are the history of the Tour of Spain. In this area of Gredos, the pools are very famous, which are places in the river where you can bathe and cool off in summer. There are several around Arenas de San Pedro. As they tend to fill up on summer days, you have to go early to get a spot.

Castle built in the 15th century. In the year 1393, King Henry III granted the title of Villa to Arenas de San Pedro, handing over its lordship to Ruy López Dávalos, constable of Castile, who began its construction. It is known as the Castle of the Sad Countess, because after the execution of Don Álvaro de Luna in 1453, Juan II allowed the town to remain in the possession of his widow, Doña Juana de Pimentel, popularly known by this nickname.

The Aquelcabos Bridge is commonly called a Roman bridge (since it was built on a previous, presumably Roman, bridge). It is the oldest bridge in Arenas de San Pedro. It is expected that it was built in the 11th century, so it is of medieval origin. It was widely used by travelers and nomadic shepherds, paying in advance for the portage or ferry. It consists of three arches, the central one being the largest of all. Its pavement has been restored with paving imitating the original. On both sides there is a stone parapet one meter high and several parts of its layout have been repaired with cement.
