エンバルスデラセレナでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

Today, the castle is not only not in ruins (it has been restored), but for me it is one of the best preserved in the area, and can be visited. In the mornings it is open for a few hours, it has a well-preserved cistern that is interesting to see, the views, especially with the reservoir full of water, are spectacular.

Spectacular view of Capilla from the walk to the castle above the town. On a clear day you can see it for miles.

Zarza-Capilla is a small town in the La Serena valley. One of the most interesting monuments in the town is the 16th century Church of Saint Bartholomew.

The peak of Las Poyatas sits above the town of Zarza-Capilla. Incredible panoramic views of the valley.

Beautiful views from the Cima de las Poyatas, located at 856 meters above sea level in the Sierra del Torozo. During our climb to the top, we may have to push the bike because of its inclination and difficulty.

Hill with curious characteristics. If you manage to reach the top on foot or by bike (more complicated), you will get spectacular views of the area

It was erected by the Muslims, and during their occupation it was already a strategic enclave in communications between Mérida, Seville, Córdoba, Almadén and Toledo. The town of Capilla and its castle were conquered in 1226 by King Ferdinand III of Castilla y León, who donated it to the Knights Templar in 1236, after the conquest of Córdoba. Its structure has survived to the present day, although its condition is in ruins.
