Take in the view with care

This is not a built viewpoint and has no railings, but its perch over the canyon makes it an outstanding window onto the gorge. You can appreciate the depth of the ravines, the river’s turquoise water, a striking meander, and on the canyon floor, a limestone pillar known as Castillo de Garabatea.

How to get there

Via the Ruta BTT 2, Los Miradores del Tajo trail, starting from Taravilla. From Lebrancón, the track leaving from Olmos de la Soledad climbs onto the plateau until meeting the orange route markers.
