I have gone through the gorges of the Duraton River, but you can go by car to a parking lot 500 meters away. Next to the Hermitage of San Frutos are the ruins of the Hermitage of San Valentín, its brother.

We are at the Convento de la Hoz Viewpoint, which offers us beautiful panoramic views of the meanders of the Duratón River and the Hoz Monastery located in the town of La Hoz de la Vieja. It is accessed via a beautiful forest track of a few kilometers and upon arrival it impresses you with its spectacular views. Highly recommended!
