アルデアデルオビスポのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Almeida stands on the plateau like a table set for history: "Al-Mêda" was the name given to it by the Arabs. Previously, it had been a Lusitanian, Roman, and then Christian fort, conquered in 1190 and definitively Portuguese in 1297. Around the medieval castle grew the town, still marked by the Puerta do Sol. After the Restoration, the town transformed into a veritable war machine: the six-pointed star-shaped fortress, with bastions, ravelins, and underground galleries that served as both shelter and prison. It was the scene of decisive battles, devastated by the explosion of 1810 and contested in the liberal wars, always rising from the ruins.

A small sleepy village near the Portuguese border. From here you can take a great hike to the Puente de los franceses. The walk there is worth it! 🙂

A small river with a bridge that connects the villages of Puerto Seguro and La Bouza. Warning! The path there has a gradient of up to 15% in places.

On the Camino del Fuerte, which connects the municipalities of Aldea del Obispo, Puerto Seguro and Villar de Ciervo, the Puente de los Franceses represents the historical, cultural and landscape union between these three places

The bridge lies in a valley on the Águeda River. It is particularly worth hiking there in spring or autumn as the surrounding area is beautifully green. Danger! The path there is steep and has scree.

Small, but beautiful town, where the nucleus is created from the parish church of San Sebastián, which is located in the middle of the town!
