The climb up the road to what is called the Black Lagoon of Urbión is a tough climb but well worth it. When you arrive at the top, the views are beautiful and a few meters away you can reach (with the bike loaded on top) the Black Lagoon.

Portillo of the Laguna Negra de Soria

Highlight • Mountain Pass

In the Laguna Negra de Vinuesa there are two Portillas that allow climbing to both ends, right and left, of the cliff that surrounds it.
The Portilla on the Right side allows the climb towards Pico del Zorraquín.
The Portilla de la Izquierda, shorter and easier to climb, puts you on the path to climb the Pico de Urbión, either through the Laguna Larga or the Laguna Helada. On the way up to this Portilla you will find the Arroyo de La Laguna with its beautiful waterfall, where it is essential to stop to admire and photograph it.

Waterfall of the Laguna Negra

Highlight • Waterfall

The black lagoon of Vinuesa is a heavenly place. Stopping in front of the lagoon waterfall is an even Mystical experience, especially in spring, during the thaw season.

Laguna Negra de Urbión

Highlight • Lake

The black lagoon is located north of Soria, in the well-known region of Pinares. Discover this spectacular lagoon of glacial origin located at almost 2000 meters of altitude in the Sierra de Urbión. There are several legends about the black lagoon since it has no bottom, that it communicates with the sea through a series of caves and currents or that a being lives in its dark waters that devours everyone who falls into it. The most widespread legend is the one written by Antonio Machado in 1912 in the Land of Alvar Gonzalez, alluding to the absence of a background. The reality is that the black lagoon of Urbión is between 8 and 10 meters deep.
