Puebla de Sanabria Castle

Highlight • Castle

We are in Puebla de Sanabria, more specifically on the San Francisco bridge. Puebla is the starting point for many hiking or mountain biking routes due to its proximity to Lake Sanabria. It is worth taking a walk around the town, strolling through the streets and discovering the traditional houses and the houses of the historic complex, as well as the Castle of the Counts of Benavente or the town hall.
