The Horadada Canyon is an impressive natural gorge located in the Palentina Mountains, between the municipalities of Aguilar de Campoo and Pomar de Valdivia, in the province of Palencia. This canyon has been carved by the Pisuerga River over millennia, cutting through the limestone terrain of the Las Loras and Las Tuerces natural area.

Perched on a cliff but easily accessible, it is super cool to walk among its ruins.

The next town is Vallespinoso de Aguilar. The hermitage of Santa Cecilia, immediately standing out on a castle hill, is dated to the 12th century and was declared a historical-artistic monument in 1951. The portico has well-carved capitals and the location conveys the atmosphere of a fortress sanctuary.

The stone labyrinth of Las Tuerces has several paths and the Natural monument can be explored according to one's taste, letting oneself be guided by intuition and the indications of the itineraries. The track is a general proposal with a loop that approaches the viewpoints of the Pisuerga River to learn about the natural, geological and environmental values of the natural area. The Las Tuerces labyrinth occupies a plain of limestone rocks sculpted by water erosion on a syncline hanging in the canyon of the Pisuerga River, a territory of geological interest because it marks the meeting between the Cantabrian mountains and the lands of the moor. In the shadowy stone alleys, relict beech trees, hazelnut trees, gall oaks, rocky vegetation and thorny plants from humid environments typical of other latitudes appear, coexisting amazingly with holm oaks, junipers and shrubs from a Mediterranean environment, a forest wonder. An admirable whim of nature that is a lesson in geology and the history of the Earth in the last hundred million years in the open air.
