Alcalá del Júcar is one of the most picturesque villages in Castilla-La Mancha, famous for its spectacular location on a deep bend of the Júcar River. The terraced white houses, the caves carved into the rock, and its castle overlooking the canyon make it a must-see destination. Castle of Alcalá del Júcar A fortress of Arab origin, rebuilt after the Reconquista. The best views of the canyon and the village can be enjoyed from the top.

The so-called Roman Bridge of Alcalá del Júcar, despite its popular name, is not of Roman origin. Its current construction dates back to 1771, although it is known that there was an earlier bridge, possibly of medieval or even Roman origin, which was destroyed by floods or the passage of time.

It's worth staying overnight, especially at dusk, and visiting the river island is a beautiful, tranquil spot!

It is one of the most spectacular and picturesque villages in the province of Albacete; its location and the exceptional landscape formed by the Júcar gorge make us feel the need to stop as soon as it appears before our eyes to be able to contemplate it in all its grandeur. Its houses of popular architecture, dug into the mountain, adapt to the terrain in narrow and steep streets, climbing towards the Castle that looks out over the gorge formed by the river at its feet.
