The best gravel rides around Cijuela

Stop yes or yes

Rain cistern, it served as a reserve in times of drought and actually continues to fill with water when it rains.

Very nice and fast cycle path.

The cycle path is a green way to approach Granada. But it is not that special. Rather a missed opportunity to make something beautiful of it.

The Ermita del Cristo de las Cañas is a private hermitage located in the heart of the Cortijo de las Cañas, on the road to Santa Fe. The building, located in Belicena, is surrounded by two imposing chestnut trees that are over 100 years old. The hermitage is dedicated to the Cristo de las Cañas and is particularly famous for the tradition that on Good Friday at 3:00 pm the hermitage is opened to the public and visitors can make their three wishes, which, according to tradition, are granted by the Cristo. The hermitage was originally built in the 17th century and has a rich history, including a special dispensation granted by the Archbishop of Granada in 1781. The hermitage is also used for religious gatherings and processions, especially in times of drought, when the residents of Belicena bring the image of their patron saint, San Marcos, to the hermitage to pray for rain.

The Puerta de Granada in Santa Fe is a historic city gate originally built in the 15th century during the siege of Granada by the Catholic Monarchs. It is one of four city gates that formed part of the original fortifications of the city. This gate faces east and is known for its rich decorations, including a dome decorated with leaf motifs, shells and polychrome stucco. It is an important historical monument and a symbol of Santa Fe's rich history.

Iglesia Parroquial de la Encarnación The Iglesia Parroquial de la Encarnación in Santa Fe, Granada, is a beautiful example of neoclassical architecture. The church was built between 1774 and 1785 under the direction of the architects Ventura Rodríguez and Domingo Lois Monteagudo. It stands on the site of an earlier church that was destroyed by a landslide in 1824. The church has an impressive fachada with two towers and a column-shaped portico with statues of Kings Ferdinand and Isabella. Inside the church you can see a precise iconographic program, designed by the painter Fernando Marín Chaves. The church is also historically important because it was on the site where the Capitulaciones de Santa Fe were signed in 1492, which approved Christopher Columbus' voyage to America.

Santa Fe is a municipality in the province of Granada, in the autonomous community of Andalusia. Located in the Vega de Granada and crossed by the Genil River from east to west, the municipal area is almost completely flat and has no mountainous heights.
