Montalbán, a historic town and cultural capital of the Cuencas Mineras (Municipal Mining Basins), stands out for its rich heritage and its location on the banks of the Martín River. Its old town preserves remains of medieval walls and gateways, as well as the Church of Santiago Apóstol, a magnificent example of Aragonese Gothic-Mudejar architecture. Visitors can also explore the remains of the castle and a network of cellars and underground passages. As part of the Martín River Cultural Park, it offers cultural and nature routes that combine history and geology, ideal for cyclists looking to discover unique landscapes and towns full of character.

Huesa del Común is a small town in the Cuencas Mineras region, located in a spectacular setting next to the Aguasvivas River, which forms a limestone canyon ideal for climbing and via ferrata. The remains of the Peñaflor Castle, of Muslim origin, rise on a rocky outcrop, and a late medieval bridge stands out in the town center. The town is also known for its pottery-making tradition, vestiges of which can still be seen in the Las Ollerías neighborhood.

Monforte de Moyuela is a small village in the Jiloca region of Teruel, located at an altitude of over 1,000 meters and surrounded by the Oriche mountain range. It preserves remains of its 12th-century castle and a Roman dam, as well as several chapels and the parish church of La Asunción, rebuilt in the 19th century after the Carlist Wars. The town is part of the Route of El Cid, which makes it even more attractive for those cycling along historic, less-traveled paths. The terrain is mountainous, and it's advisable to bring good equipment and plenty of water, as services are limited in the area.

We are in a beautiful Teruel town located in the Cuencas Mineras region with about 81 inhabitants in 2020. Do you dare to discover the reason for the town's name? It is a curious story.

The name of the town seems to come from the pre-Roman root sik-, sek-, with the meaning of source or river,3 while the surname "de los Baños" alludes to the hot springs near the source of the Aguasvivas river.
