A beautiful village framed in the natural park of Sabinares del Arlanza and Yecla

impressive canyon with walkways. Bikes must be left parked, they do not fit

Spectacular canyon, which can be visited via the walkways provided for this purpose. Be careful, bicycles do not fit, as it has been verified.

About three kilometers southwest of Silos lies a gorge also known as Desfiladero de la Yecla. A footpath leads through the deep cut in the limestone cliffs, whose valley floor the sun barely reaches. Colonies of griffon vultures and other birds of prey live in this adventurous landscape.

The gorge is nice to walk through since some walls have a verticality of 50m and we can also see vultures. The walk to Santo Domingo runs along a track with no problems for both walking and cycling except for the gorge itself.

The hermitage is located in the Lomas de Cervera area, below Picacho and Pico Castro. An old early medieval town named “Talamanquiella” was probably located in this place.

Santo Domingo de Silos is a town and a monastery of Benedictine monks, located in the mountains of the southeast of the province of Burgos, 57 kilometers from the capital. The town and monastery are located in the eastern part of the Tabladillo valley, at 1000 meters above sea level and surrounded by high mountains of limestone rocks, sparsely covered with holm oaks, junipers, eskenes and pines.

Wonderful gorge through which a path has been built. You can almost always see vultures on the rocks high up.
