The Gate of Hell is one of the tunnels excavated in the rock of the Escabas River. One of the many obligatory stops available in the high mountains of Cuenca. Be very careful when taking photos, the road is very narrow.

A beautiful place for all nature lovers. It is a canyon that we can cross by road, one of the most picturesque in Spain. Enjoying the views do not forget to be careful going through the curves next to the rock walls of up to 400 m. Luckily there is little traffic.

A great place to cool off in the water or rest on the small beach. Clean water and trees provide shade. In summer there may be a lot of people.
