Description

We'll meet at Plaza Iglesia in Yela at the designated time. From there, we'll start this hiking route through the Quejigares de Barriopedro & Brihuega.

Located in the valley of the central stretch of the Tajuña River, this protected wooded area boasts a variety of species, such as holm oaks, gall oaks, willows, and poplars. While enjoying the

During the hike, you'll encounter small mammals such as genets, wildcats, and badgers. The route is approximately 13 kilometers long and will take us to Civica, a village carved into the rock.

This abandoned place features caves, terraces, arches, and passages that create an architectural treat in the Alcarria. Here, you'll learn about the history of this construction by Don Aurelio and the story of Civica!
