Watched over by the remains of its ancient castle, Daroca emerges, one of the most beautiful cities in Aragon. Without a doubt, one of the charms of the town is to walk along its walls, with their imposing towers, until you reach the castle, from which you can enjoy a beautiful panoramic view.

One of the most beautiful spots in the area, if not the most. The road from Jaraba to Calmarza is spectacular, although quite bumpy.

The castle of the Funes, in Villel de Mesa, is located on a large, elongated rock mass with vertical walls, which reach forty meters in height and a little more in length. This ridge is located between the village facing north and south. The southern part rises between the houses and the palace of the marquises of Villel, imposing the castle.

We are in Munébrega, where the Church of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción stands out, of course, in the Mudéjar style and from the 14th century. We can go to see the hermitage of San Cristóbal or the hermitage of Nuestra Señora del Mar y de la Cuesta or the beautiful pond that is in the surroundings with an age of more than 600 years. And if we want to play at getting lost in Munébrega, we can try to find the five Peirones that are scattered throughout the town.

At this point we can take the detour to approach the Sanctuary of Jaraba, an imposing and impressive hermitage located in the Barranco de la Hoz Seca, with rocky walls next to the river canyon. A highly recommended visit if we are in the area. The guided tour is recommended.

Located in the Manubles Valley we find another of the many charming towns with a lot of architecture and history in this area of Aragon. The imposing Castle stands out, of which the remains remain today, and the spectacular church of San Millán located on top of a rocky crag.
