    Sepulveda & Duraton River Natural Walk

    October 11, 2023 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C

    This morning we headed off to Sepulveda for a walk through the spectacular limestone canyon area of the Duraton River Natural Park. We walked along the river, past the old city gates and city wall and climbed up and down several times as we crossed the river and a number of old Roman bridges into the valley. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking and we even saw a Black Neck Stork and several Griffon Vultures during our walk. It was a sunny day and quite warm, so we did enjoy the shady areas of the walk close by the river.

    Our walk covered around 6 kilometres and took us about 2 hours with 150 metres of ascent and descent. We arrived back at the Medieval town of Sepulveda, where we were able to sit under umbrellas and enjoy wine, beers and tapas. Ir was a wonderful morning’s activity.    Read more
