This route enters the canyon of the Tagus River, in the area of “Sunken Armallones”, one of the most spectacular enclaves of the Natural Park. In this place, the erosive power of the river is evident, which has carved a deep canyon with vertical walls in which numerous rock birds nest. Walking along the track that runs through its interior, you will gradually enter the canyon and, following the route panels, you will be able to better understand how it was formed.
