Getaways
We’ve put together some brilliant shortcuts along the Grand Tour, divided into five two-day getaways and four one-day trips.

2-day breaks
Dolmens, border villages, landscapes of pastureland and the Tagus River marking the boundary. Two days to discover that here, too, the border can bring people together.
From the Roman bridge from Alcántara to the The Gypsy’s Leap, passing through villages, castles and quartzite landscapes. A journey where looking out of the window and sticking your arm out is already part of the plan.
From Monfragüe to the Geopark, amidst trompe-l’oeil and Appalachian-style landscapes. All without crossing the Atlantic, because millions of years ago they were joined together.
Guadalupe, mountain villages and millions of years of history beneath our feet. A journey through the Earth that ends, as it should, at the Guadalupe Monastery. QWell, it won’t all be walking.
1-day getaways
¿Te gustan los dólmenes? Pues esta escapada es lo más para disfrutar de un día a full de megalitos por la reserva de la biosfera transfronteriza de Tajo Internacional.
Esta escapada agrupa lo más granado de Terriitorios UNESCO: con más de 250 especies presentes en ellos. Grandes águilas, halcones, buitres, cigüeñas negras… ¡Me lo quedo!
Te proponemos una escapada muy rocosa por el geoparque Villuercas Ibores Jara, de las que dejan huella, fósil en este caso.
Porque la noche nos pertenece, hagamos una escapada nocturna, ¿cómo lo ves? Muchos lugares de Territorios UNESCO son ideales para observar estrellas por su baja contaminación lumínica.
