The erosion of rainwater has created real sculptures such as the pedestal-shaped Tozal de la Cobeta

A rural shrine located on a hill outside Alcolea de Cinca, dedicated to the Virgin of the Sabina, the local patron saint. A simple and beloved building, it's surrounded by pine and juniper trees, overlooking the Cinca River and the Monegros mountains. It's a popular stop for pilgrimages and processions, and an ideal stop on mountain biking or gravel routes in the area. It's located in a peaceful setting, accessible by dirt track from the village.

During the Civil War, the monastery was looted and partially burned. Nuns and their heritage were forced to flee. Many works were transported to Catalonia, sparking a heritage conflict that is still ongoing. In recent decades, works of art have been judicially returned from Catalan museums to the Sijena Monastery, turning the site into a symbol of memory, historical justice, and Aragonese heritage. Its isolated location in the Monegros mountains is part of its charm. The arid surroundings contrast with the monumentality of the building, giving it an almost mystical feel.

This impressive hillock is a typical natural formation of Los Monegros. A hillock is an isolated hill or mound formed by wind and water erosion. The softer layers of the soil erode over time, leaving only the most resistant rocks standing. That's why they have such unusual shapes, like natural sculptures. They are true symbols of the Monegros landscape, solitary and surrounded by arid terrain.

It is one of the most iconic geological formations on the Jubierre route. It is a sandstone monolith shaped by erosion, notable for its isolated shape and visible strata, which are especially striking at sunrise or sunset.

It is a small stone shelter typical of the Monegros region, designed to provide shelter for shepherds or hikers in bad weather.

Cycling or walking here is like crossing the heart of the Monegros landscape: arid terrain, ochre colors, and that solitary atmosphere that makes this region so special. On windy days (like during the Orbea Monegros 2025), this area becomes even more epic: the dust, the air, and the contours of the terrain make you feel like you're on another planet.
