If necessary, this is a good opportunity to carry out minor repairs on your bike and refill your water supplies. A short rest at the benches and tables is also a good option.

The railway hasn't run through this tunnel for a long time, but the "Vía Verde de los Montes de Hierro" railway trail runs through here. Very beautiful!

The monument pays homage to the "putxera," a traditional way of cooking bean stew typical of the Balmaseda region. The "putxera" is a special pot originally used by railway workers in the area. They used the heat from steam locomotives to cook their meals. The monument is made of iron and features a relief depiction of a steam locomotive, commemorating the origins of the "putxera."

The bridge was built in the 11th century and served as an important crossing point on the old road to Castile. It crosses the Cadagua River and is one of the city's landmarks. The bridge consists of three arches and has a Gothic tower added in the 15th century. This tower was formerly used to collect tolls.
