The best cycling routes around Zorita

Market Hall. Building constructed in 1959, recently renovated; unique architecture with brick facade and gabled roof.

The route enters the Vegas del Jarama Greenway, and the journey takes on a completely new emotional state thanks to the serenity of the environment and the comfort of the road surface. The route of the old mining train runs through the dehesas or rañas of the Ruecas River valley, undisturbed, passing over several viaducts that span the river's meanders. From time to time, the old stations and halts appear, half-ruined and abandoned. The villages are off the track, and to get supplies or water, you have to detour several kilometers. Madrigalejo is the closest and most recommended town; it is three kilometers from the old local station and has shops and all kinds of services. The Greenway gradually enters a new landscape. The meadows of the Vegas Altas fade, and the curious "Appalachian" reliefs of Las Villuercas emerge, shaped by parallel ridges of slate and schist that appear to have been pounded and kneaded by a geological sculptor. Some authors have compared them to the Appalachian Mountains of North America and declared the Villuercas-Ibores-Jara Global Geopark by UNESCO. The Greenway ends at the old Logrosán station, and a new section of the Las Villuercas Nature Trail GR-116 begins, leading to La Puebla de Guadalupe. The pedaling pace slows due to the condition of the road surface, but it remains an impeccable cycle route. From Logrosán onward, the original route of the old railway is no longer maintained; the trail markers appear on rural roads and on some isolated stretches of the old railway used by local farmers. The Camino reaches the hamlet of Cañamero via the Santa Ana chapel and runs through the town center, famous for its Vegas del Guadiana Designation of Origin wines, made from mountain vines grown on rugged slate slopes. The exit from Cañamero is spectacular and somewhat unsettling, following the path of the Ruecas canyon. Pay attention on the descent; there's a short trial. It then continues along farm roads to the climb to the Martín Blasco pass, a good stretch before tackling the final stretch of the day through the solitary mountains of Las Villuercas and ending in Guadalupe, passing once again through the arch of the old mining railway, the last reminder of a project that confounded the era; it was built almost a hundred years before it was used.

Cañamero, in the province of Cáceres, Extremadura, is a charming destination that combines history, culture and nature. You can explore the church of Santo Domingo de Guzmán and the hermitage of Nuestra Señora de Belén, which are examples of local religious architecture.

In the 16th century, it was the seat of the estate of Martín de Chaves, founder of the Chaves mayorazgo. Subsequently, it passed to the Vargas Carvajal family, who held the office of courier of the Indies and, later, the title of counts of Castillejo. The estate included the Viña de Aceituno. In 1594, it was part of the Tierra de Trujillo in the province of Trujillo. Since 1834, it was integrated into the Judicial Party of Logrosán
