リオグアダレテのおすすめランニングルート

It's one of Andalusia's most iconic villages, perched on a rock with spectacular views of the Guadalete River. Its narrow, steep streets, whitewashed houses, and viewpoints invite you to wander leisurely. Furthermore, its historic center, declared a Historic-Artistic Site, perfectly reflects the essence of the White Villages.

I will especially remember the steep slopes to get there.

Beautiful sandy beach next to the reservoir. There are hiking trails that allow you to explore nature and enjoy the views.

The San Miguel Bridge in Arcos de la Frontera is a historic and picturesque place. This medieval bridge is known for its architecture and its historical importance in the region.

The Puerta Matrera is the only remaining gate of the original city wall of Arcos de la Frontera. This gate connects the old town centre with the Barrio Bajo. It is a historically important building that was restored in the 17th and 18th centuries. From here you can still see remains of the city wall between the houses. The gate also has a small chapel with a statue of the Virgen del Pilar, which has been recently restored.

The town, situated on a rocky plateau, invites you to travel through time. From the 11th century it was the capital of a taifa, a small Berber kingdom. The fortified town was finally reconquered in 1264 by Alfonso X, who also took Seville, Jerez and Cádiz during the Reconquista. For two centuries Arcos was an outpost on the border of the kingdom and in the 15th century the village came into the hands of the Ponce de León family, who played a major role in the victory over the kingdom of Granada. During the 19th century, Arcos acquired its current appearance thanks to the rise of olive and grape cultivation and horse breeding.

The viewpoint located on the plain of the meandering Guadalete river as a terrace over the precipice. The viewpoint is located in the Plaza del Cabildo, one of the most emblematic corners of the old town of Arcos, just in front of the parish church of Santa María.

An important tourist destination, one of the most beautiful towns in Spain and the gateway to the Route of White Towns.
