A beautiful village in the Sierra Riojana mountains. From here, you can take many hikes through the surrounding forests.

Small and quiet town located in the valley of the Yalde river, in the Rioja Alta, with a beautiful wooded environment that surrounds the entire population. The town is located at an altitude of 967 meters, near the Yalde reservoir. It is believed that Castroviejo played an important role as a supplier of fuel from firewood, as well as supplying clay and water.

The Yalde Reservoir is located on the outskirts of Castroviejo. Built over the course of the Yalde River, a tributary of the Najerilla, the reservoir regulates river flow and supplies water to 11 municipalities located in the course.

Daroca Castle is a modest peak in the Moncalvillo area separated and isolated from the mountain range where the main peaks are found. The route is an easy and short walk.

Located in the center of the urban area, this beautiful church is from the 16th century. The buttresses prop up the church and give the pointed tower a strange feeling of slenderness in keeping with the landscape.
