Located at the exit of the town on the road leading to Soria, this tower built in 1554 currently retains its battlements, also highlighting the angular cubes and the Renaissance portal with the coats of arms of the founders, Diego de Gamarra and Leonor de Serón.

A spring of cool water at the top of the hill. A good place to take a short break.

The Cantabrian Greenway between Burgos and Cascajares is perfectly cyclable. There are some sections of loose gravel and minor undergrowth, but be careful. The tunnel is smooth; it's advisable to bring a light.
