Embark on a sensory journey to the heart of the UNESCO Villuercas-Ibores-Jara Global Geopark. This road, probably one of the least travelled and least well-known in the province of Cáceres, winds its way through Mediterranean forests, riverbanks and quartzite mountain ranges, revealing Appalachian landscapes sculpted by time.

In the 46 kilometres between Conquista de la Sierra and Caňamero, every bend invites you to discover ancient landscapes, majestic birds of prey, cave paintings and a silence that smells of holm oak and oak. Ideal for leisurely explorers and lovers of nature in its purest form, this route – designed for vehicles – is an ode to the geological and cultural heritage of Extremadura.
