Itinerario

1. Drive to Segovia. We can choose to drive via the mountains for scenic drive. It takes an extra 20 minutes but on a pretty day it is worth it.

   1,3 h

2. Lets start with a WOW moment. The Pradera de San Marcos is located right at the foot of the Alcazar de Segovia, which rises imposingly on a promontory. It gives the impression of being a ship (more like its bow) embedded high on a rock. The best view is obtained from this meadow.

Its soaring spires grace the city skyline, showcasing remarkable stained glass windows and an extensive collection of art and history, solidifying its status as an essential architectural gem in Segovia.

4. The Segovia Alcazar, originally an Arab fort, was later rebuilt as a royal palace by King Alfonso VIII. It served as a residence for various monarchs and played a crucial role in Spanish history.
