Stream crossing

Highlight (Segment) • River

A fairly rocky section of trail descends to the Riosequillo stream. Both the descent and ascent from the stream are quite difficult due to the steep, broken terrain.

Puente Congosto

Highlight • Bridge

Beautiful stone bridge over the Lozoya River, very characteristic of this area. The canyon of the river provides a very picturesque environment that will give you some unique postcards.

This bridge built with its pillars over the Lozoya River gorge itself, obtained its side walls shortly after the Civil War. Its origins are uncertain. They could be Roman, the pass being located on a transit route on the way to Segovia. However, the area in which it is located is mentioned in the hunting book of Alfonso XI, medieval king of Castile. What is certain is that the bridge had a repair in the 19th century. XIV.

Matafrailes Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Of the three medieval bridges in Canencia, this is the furthest from the town, near the municipality of Gargantilla de Lozoya. Crossing the waters of the Canencia stream, this bridge of medieval origin has a single pointed arch, with a deck that is wider at the ends than in the center. Thanks to the height of the two rocks that function as its foundations, the height of the pass protected it from possible floods.

Built in the center of El Cuadrón in stone, brick, and wood, its style can be described as austere and simple, prepared for the worship of a small population.
