알벤토사 최고의 사이클링 경로

Just a few meters away, there's a wind farm. You can walk up close and stand under one of the windmills. On windy days, it's quite an experience.

More than a campsite, I'd say it's a recreational area for picnicking. It has children's games, a water fountain, and tables.

There are several rural houses and accommodations. It is not just a village next to a national highway, it has a peculiar charm of a moorland village. A street runs through the whole town, if you look carefully you will guess many of its people and its history. It grew and now it is retreating.

Well-lit 400m tunnel

One of the most notable characteristics of the municipality and that draws the most attention is the dispersion of its population centers. Throughout the valley, groups of houses of various sizes are distributed. The largest is the core of Olba, itself. But we also find the following neighborhoods or villages: Los Lucas, Los Ibáñez Bajos, la Tosca, los Ramones, los Pertegaces, los Villanuevas, los Giles, Casa Bolea, el Casucho, la Artiga, los Ibáñez Altos, la Hoya Ramos, los Tarragones , the Tarrasones, the Moya, the Villagrasas, the Peñablanca, the Barranco del Lobo... among others. The so-called "upper neighborhoods" far from the river and located in the mountains are currently abandoned, with some exceptions. The neighborhoods receive the surnames of the first Christian settlers. Although the name of the neighborhood "Los Ramones" has nothing to do in its origins with the rock band of the same name, the traffic signs with the name of the neighborhood have been the subject of various thefts, presumably as "souvenirs" of the band.

During the Spanish Civil War 1936-1939, that old road was a transit point for troops, liaisons, couriers, spies, wounded and refugees. The main link, not the only one, between Valencia and the Teruel front.

Long and spectacular greenway, passing through tunnels, viaducts, mountains in their splendor with a variety of landscapes. To do it in a bit of a long day, but it can be done.

We are in the small town of Olba, in the Gúdar-Javalambre region of the province of Teruel and it is certainly worth a visit. We can walk or ride a bike along the side of the river next to the forests that accompany it or visit the town center, the hermitage of San Pedro, the hermitage of San Roque or the Carlos IV bridge.
