This beautiful medieval bridge was built between the 13th and 14th centuries. It is about one hundred meters long and almost three meters wide, which allowed carriages and vehicles to cross from one side to the other.

You may not see this bridge if you pass quickly and are not paying attention. In addition to its beauty, it is also interesting for its location, since it is located next to the mouth of the Isábena river with the Ésera river.

It is a beautiful town that can be easily reached by pedaling from Secastilla. There are many tracks in the area, which also connect with the reservoir, although if you have to return, make sure to save your strength, since you will have to climb back up. In addition to walking through its quiet streets and discovering corners such as its oil mill, we recommend that you visit the Roman site of Labitolosa (next to the town) and the incredible hermitage of San Román, located in a location that will not leave you indifferent.

You can get there along its quiet and comfortable road that also offers beautiful views since it is completely surrounded by vineyards. In the town you can refill water if you need it, since there is a fountain.
