Guardia Civil Roundabout

Highlight • Monument

In this roundabout, the Jaén City Council wanted to pay homage to the worthy body with a metal statue that represents a civil guard dressed in a cape, helping an injured man to get up.
This statue rusted with the first rains due to the lack of adequate coating for the weather. (Things that happen 🤷‍♂️)

Train Car on the Vía Verde del Aceite

Highlight • Structure

It is a reference point that opens the door of the Vía Verde el Aceite that connects the capital of Jaén with Puente Genil in the province of Córdoba. Vandalism and lack of civility have left it somewhat battered, but there it resists, hoping that all passers-by can see it and admire it.

Start of the Green Oil Route

Highlight • Trail

This is where the Oil Greenway begins (or ends, depending on how you want to walk it). 120 magnificent kilometers await you on an unforgettable route that crosses the olive-grove landscapes of this part of Andalusia.

Welcome pergola

Highlight • Structure

This enormous wooden pergola welcomes users of the Vía Verde del Aceite (Olive Oil Greenway). It was built in the fall of 2024 to beautify the beginning of the route.
It features climbing plants that will soon entangle themselves around the structure and provide shade for those of us who stop to program our navigation systems or simply refill our water containers.
Following the pergola, which must measure about 50 meters, trees have been planted to extend the shade by another 50 meters, which is especially appreciated during the summer months.

Tunnel under the highway

Highlight • Bridge

The Olive Oil Green Route passes under the olive grove highway through a small tunnel wide enough to accommodate both vehicles and cyclists, as well as other agricultural vehicles that share the area to cross to the other side of the highway.

El Berrueco Castle

Highlight • Castle

Its name is actually singular: El Berrueco.
It is located within the municipality of Torredelcampo, Jaén, and is a fortification built by Muslims dating back to the 12th century. Although it is currently in a state of disrepair and beyond restoration, its deplorable state of preservation means the authorities may not consider rebuilding it.
Due to its location, it was involved in numerous disputes as a border between the Muslim and Christian kingdoms, witnessing power struggles between the two kingdoms.

19th-century telegraph post

Highlight • Monument

It is the only vestige of the construction of the railway that passed through Jaén towards Puente Genil, today transformed into a Greenway.
It is striking how it has remained in such good condition despite the time that has passed.
