A small sleepy village near the Portuguese border. From here you can take a great hike to the Puente de los franceses. The walk there is worth it! 🙂

A small river with a bridge that connects the villages of Puerto Seguro and La Bouza. Warning! The path there has a gradient of up to 15% in places.

On the Camino del Fuerte, which connects the municipalities of Aldea del Obispo, Puerto Seguro and Villar de Ciervo, the Puente de los Franceses represents the historical, cultural and landscape union between these three places

The bridge lies in a valley on the Águeda River. It is particularly worth hiking there in spring or autumn as the surrounding area is beautifully green. Danger! The path there is steep and has scree.

In the lands of the west of Salamanca this fortress stands, a clear example of the ups and downs and border disputes. According to the chronicles, it was built in the 13th century by the Portuguese king Don Dinis. With the character of a fortress palace, it is located at one end of the urban area.

Small, but beautiful town, where the nucleus is created from the parish church of San Sebastián, which is located in the middle of the town!

The castle tower that still stands was part of the fortress built in the 13th century by the Portuguese king Don Dinis to protect the lands in the area. It is advisable to visit the tower inside, it houses a Historical Interpretation Classroom and a permanent exhibition on the Border Fortifications. In addition, from the top floor you can enjoy beautiful views of the entire area, including neighboring Portuguese lands.

A symbol of the town of Sobradillo, the tower was built in the 15th century and was part of the network of defensive fortifications and castles that made it possible to monitor and secure the border against Portuguese attacks. This particular tower belonged to the fortification of the castle of San Felices de los Gallegos.
