ビジャールデルポゾの洞窟・トップ5

The Ciruela and Cantagallos Trail is located on the outskirts of Ciudad Real, heading toward Aldea del Rey. Ciruela is an ancient village with historical remains, including a medieval castle known as Castillo de Ciruela, dating back to the 12th century. There is a company called Canta Gallos Agropecuaria S.L., dedicated to agricultural and livestock farming, based in Ciudad Real.

A good bike path that runs from the village of Ciruela, past the castle ruins, and toward Finca Cantagallos and the airport.

Lots of breeze to get there, but good paths around it to explore.

The village and castle of Ciruela, located about 6 kilometres from Ciudad Real, are a place full of history and charm. The castle, known during the Arab domination as Hisn al Sujayrola, was part of a network of fortifications in the lower basin of the Jabalón River. Although today only ruins remain, they sit on a modest height overlooking the Jabalón Valley. The village and the castle have been the subject of archaeological and geological studies, highlighting their importance within the "Calatrava Volcanoes Geopark" project. This project seeks to protect and disseminate the natural and cultural heritage of the region.

Good trails for MTB.

There are hardly any remains of what was the castle and the church, but a beautiful landscape to get close to. Visit the Village on the way.

The castle is privately owned and, given its ruinous situation, with the dangers that its visit entails, its access is prohibited without the permission of the property
