아빌라 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

경로 초반은 해발 1730m의 피코 데 아반토스(Pico de Abantos) 정상까지 오르막이라 조금 힘들지만, 측지점에서의 전망이 정말 아름답고 장관이라 그럴 만한 가치가 있습니다. 풍경의 호사입니다. 그리고 제가 2026년 8월 30일에 갔을 때처럼 거의 내내 그늘져 있어서 좋았습니다.

The Pelayos River, in Arenas de San Pedro (Ávila), is a popular spot for hiking and swimming in the summer, located in the Tiétar Valley on the southern slopes of the Sierra de Gredos mountain range. It's a river with clear water that forms natural pools ideal for swimming, such as the Charco Verde (Green Pool), a popular spot in the summer. The Pelayos River recreation area has a kiosk, picnic area, and parking, making it a perfect starting point for hiking trails.

The views are spectacular; it's worth stopping by and visiting this sculptural and architectural gem of our country.

Monumental funerary complex designed in 1940 by Pedro Muguruza and Diego Méndez. Its impressive sculptures were designed by Juan de Ábalos y Taborda. The cross, located on the Risco de la Nava, is 150 meters high with arms measuring 24 meters each. It is the tallest cross in Christendom.

Be careful after passing the monastery, do not miss the sign for La Cruz.

The Tormes River is a tributary of the Duero on its left bank, it runs through the Community of Castilla y León, crossing the provinces of Ávila, Salamanca and Zamora. The Tormes rises in the Tormejón meadow, in the Gredos mountain range. It feeds several reservoirs, the Santa Teresa and Villagonzalo reservoirs, the San Fernando reservoir and, close to its mouth in the Duero, the Almendra reservoir, where, sandwiched between rock walls, it forms the so-called arribes del Tormes.

The largest oak forest in the town of Candelada. There is a signposted route (R1: La Tijera) that allows you to enter this beautiful place. There is no fountain during the tour, so you have to stock up on water in Candelada. The route is not difficult at all, it can be done perfectly with the whole family, all year round, although I recommend doing it in spring or autumn.

The Aquelcabos Bridge is commonly called a Roman bridge (since it was built on a previous, presumably Roman, bridge). It is the oldest bridge in Arenas de San Pedro. It is expected that it was built in the 11th century, so it is of medieval origin. It was widely used by travelers and nomadic shepherds, paying in advance for the portage or ferry. It consists of three arches, the central one being the largest of all. Its pavement has been restored with paving imitating the original. On both sides there is a stone parapet one meter high and several parts of its layout have been repaired with cement.
