What to expect

1

Valdecabras

Before arriving at the Enchanted City we will stop at the viewpoint that rises above the Valdecabras Valley, to admire the small town of 80 inhabitants and its orchards in the background.

Duration 10 minutes
2

Ciudad Encantada

We will walk a circular path 3 km long through the peculiar limestone formations eroded over millions of years. The first, the famous Tormo Alto, appears at the beginning of the trail with an impossible shape with a narrow base and a wide "head". The Ships follow, immortalized in Conan the Barbarian and The Head of Man. The path then turns to leave the Roman Bridge and La Foca aside before entering the Tobogán, a gorge of more than 100 m. long and just a couple of meters wide. A little further on we will be amazed by The Elephant and the Crocodile, we will cross the arch of the Convent and we will find ourselves in the Plaza Mayor surrounded by giant Mushrooms. We will start the way back where we will admire La Tortuga, Los Osos and Los Amantes de Teruel. During the tour we will also find the most characteristic plant species of the Serranía de Cuenca Natural Park: huge pines, yews, ivy and junipers

Duration 90 minutes

Laguna De Una

Next to the small town of Uña, with less than 100 inhabitants, is the spectacular lagoon to which it gives its name. The waters are surrounded by huge limestone cliffs where it is easy to see griffon vultures taking off from their vultures. The waters attract a multitude of ducks and storks and its 15 hectares are inhabited by various species of fish.

Duration 15 minutes

Ventano del Diablo

We can enjoy the two wonderful viewpoints of the Ventano del Diablo. One hangs about 80 meters above the waters of the Júcar River in the place of rapids known as Los Cortados. The other allows you to see the town of Villalba de la Sierra from above and the abandoned town of El Salto, built 100 years ago for the workers of the hydroelectric power station.

Duration 15 minutes
