Beautiful area with steep slopes

Without a doubt, this is one of the great discoveries of our trip to the Sierra de Gredos. Although it is not a renowned architectural monument, the Sanctuary is worth visiting for its location, its views, the interesting climb from Candeleda by bicycle and the pleasant walk that can be taken in its surroundings.

This small hermitage, built in the 16th and 17th centuries, is located in an environment of lush vegetation and beauty. Inside, the miracle of the Virgin of Chilla, the patron saint of Candeleda, is narrated on panels. The festivities in honor of the Virgin of Chilla, declared of National Tourist Interest, are celebrated on the second and third weekend of September. The sanctuary is located 6 km from Candeleda and offers magnificent panoramic views of the Rosarito Reservoir and the sky. Legend has it that the Virgin appeared to a shepherd named Finardo, who had lost a goat due to eating weeds. The Virgin resurrected the goat, and since then, it has always been represented that way. If you ever have the opportunity to visit this place, you will be immersed in a spiritual and tranquil experience surrounded by the natural beauty of the area. 🌿🌟

The Old Bridge of Candeleda is a beautiful bridge that stands over the Santa María Gorge. Built at the beginning of the 20th century, this neo-Mudejar style bridge is a centuries-old testimony of local architecture. From here, you can walk along what they call the “maritime promenade”, a place perfectly equipped for walking.

A beautiful spot in Madrigal de la Vera. There's a natural pool for swimming. Naturally, the water is quite cold. Impressive Roman-style bridge. It's believed to have been based on a Roman original and dates back to the Middle Ages.

The Roman bridge of Madrigal, also known as the "Old Bridge," is a bridge of Roman origin that crosses the Alardos Gorge, a narrow valley carved by the Tiétar River. Currently, it consists of only one arch; its original form is unknown, as it underwent several reconstructions. The bridge was built as part of the Roman road that linked Plasencia with Puerto del Pico and Ávila.

Also known as the old bridge, this overpass over the Alardos gorge is located on the route of the Roman road between Plasencia and Ávila through Puerto del Pico. Its exact origin is unknown, although it is theorized that the Romans built it for military transit purposes.
