At the Fuente del Franc\u00e9s, a fountain, you can refresh yourself and take a rest in the picnic area. You\u2019ll see the house of the peones camineros, where the people in charge of maintaining the Camino Real, an old road that linked Extremadura with Castile, used to live. If you are feeling adventurous, you can climb up to Monfrag\u00fce Castle, which has the best views of the park. The chapel houses the figure of Our Lady of Monfrag\u00fce. The red route also takes you to a cave with drawings depicting people and hunting scenes, made by the first inhabitants of the park. Prehistoric men and women lived in caves like this one. It is possible to visit the cave, but only accompanied by a guide. One of the most spectacular spots in Monfrag\u00fce is the Salto del Gitano, a 300 metres high cliff which towers over the Tagus River. From the viewpoint you can observe the different birds that fly over the area. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ specialty_columns=”2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_row_inner _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column_inner saved_specialty_column_type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.hotelrurallascorchuelas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Monfrague_senderismo_ruta-roja.jpg” title_text=”Monfrague_senderismo_ruta-roja” show_in_lightbox=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” animation_style=”slide” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Header” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_image=”https:\/\/www.hotelrurallascorchuelas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/fondo-banner-actividades-oscuro-scaled-1.jpg” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ make_equal=”on” padding_top_bottom_link_1=”true” padding_left_right_link_1=”true” module_class=” et_pb_row_fullwidth” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_image=”off” parallax=”on” width=”100%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” max_width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”100%” max_width_phone=”100%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” make_fullwidth=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.hotelrurallascorchuelas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Fuente-del-Frances-Monfrague_1-768×384-1.jpg” title_text=”Fuente-del-Frances-Monfrague_1-768×384″ show_in_lightbox=”on” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ custom_margin=”40px|||” animation_style=”zoom” animation_direction=”left” animation_intensity_zoom=”5%” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” always_center_on_mobile=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_color=”off” background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”initial” background_position=”bottom_left” background_blend=”multiply” custom_padding=”6vw|6%|6vw|6%” custom_padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” custom_padding_phone=”|||” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” padding_phone=”|||” padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Kumbh Sans|700|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”15px” text_line_height=”1.3em” global_colors_info=”{}”]

You can go from Villarreal to the Fuente del Franc\u00e9s by car or on foot. If you go by car, take the EX-208 road (2.5 km). If you go on foot, take the Ca\u00f1ada Real until you pass along the huts of Villarreal. Go down the cattle track to the Puente del Cardenal. If the bridge is covered with water due to the risen levels of the Alc\u00e1ntara reservoir, you must continue along the road and cross over the Puente Nuevo. After crossing the bridge, take the old road that continues along the Ca\u00f1ada Real, until you reach the Fuente del Franc\u00e9s. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ make_equal=”on” padding_top_bottom_link_1=”true” padding_left_right_link_1=”true” module_class=” et_pb_row_fullwidth” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_image=”off” parallax=”on” width=”100%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” max_width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”100%” max_width_phone=”100%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true” make_fullwidth=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_color=”off” background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”initial” background_position=”bottom_left” background_blend=”multiply” custom_padding=”6vw|6%|6vw|6%” custom_padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” custom_padding_phone=”|||” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” padding_phone=”|||” padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Kumbh Sans|700|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”15px” text_line_height=”1.3em” global_colors_info=”{}”]

This is a small circular route for those who prefer a shorter hike. From Villarreal, take the Ca\u00f1ada Real until you pass the huts of Villarreal.

From the Fuente del Franc\u00e9s there is a path with a lot of shady vegetation, which grows in places with little or no sunshine. This path leads to Monfrag\u00fce Castle. Part of the path is a steep climb. Once at the top, you will see the castle and the hermitage of the Virgen de Monfrag\u00fce.

From Villarreal you can take two paths. One path goes up to the heliport, an area for helicopters to land, and follows the stone wall. The other path takes you along the Ca\u00f1ada Real until you pass the huts of Villarreal and arrive at the Huerto del Almez, which features a very large tree. Where the two paths join, a dehesa area begins. From the Fuente del Alisar, the path passes through old eucalyptus fields. You will encounter a second fountain, the Fuente de los Tres Ca\u00f1os. It is a good place to rest. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ make_equal=”on” padding_top_bottom_link_1=”true” padding_left_right_link_1=”true” module_class=” et_pb_row_fullwidth” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_image=”off” parallax=”on” width=”100%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” max_width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”100%” max_width_phone=”100%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true” make_fullwidth=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_color=”off” background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”initial” background_position=”bottom_left” background_blend=”multiply” custom_padding=”6vw|6%|6vw|6%” custom_padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” custom_padding_phone=”|||” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” padding_phone=”|||” padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Kumbh Sans|700|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”15px” text_line_height=”1.3em” global_colors_info=”{}”]

Take the path that leads away from the Fuente de los Tres Ca\u00f1os. The river Ti\u00e9tar runs at the end of the path. At the Charco del Infierno, where the river meanders, Egyptian vultures nest.

This is a long route with abundant riverside vegetation. It follows the course of the Arroyo Malvecino on its right and left banks. Wooden footbridges allow you to cross it without getting wet. From the top of the Gimio Hill you can see the remains of a Roman tower and enjoy beautiful panoramic views of the Salto del Gitano, the Tagus River and the Barba\u00f3n and Malvecino streams.

From the lower bridge over the Malvecino you can also take the route along the right bank of the stream. There are many footbridges to cross the stream. The area is cool and pleasant, with riverside vegetation. You can see specimens of ash, strawberry tree and cornicabra. After some twenty minutes you will arrive at another wooden bridge that crosses the stream. On the other side there is a picnic area with tables. To continue the walk, cross the bridge again and follow along the left bank. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ make_equal=”on” padding_top_bottom_link_1=”true” padding_left_right_link_1=”true” module_class=” et_pb_row_fullwidth” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_image=”off” parallax=”on” width=”100%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” max_width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”100%” max_width_phone=”100%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true” make_fullwidth=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_color=”off” background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”initial” background_position=”bottom_left” background_blend=”multiply” custom_padding=”6vw|6%|6vw|6%” custom_padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” custom_padding_phone=”|||” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” padding_phone=”|||” padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Kumbh Sans|700|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”15px” text_line_height=”1.3em” global_colors_info=”{}”]

This part starts where part 3 ends and leads up to Cerro Gimio. The walk is easier than in part 2. Before going up, you should have a look at the stone bridge that is a little further on, on the right. It was built using very old techniques. The path leads up to Cerro Gimio on the sunny side of the stream. It has a gentle slope and is 1.5 kilometres long. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.hotelrurallascorchuelas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Puente-piedra-768×384-1.jpg” title_text=”Puente-piedra-768×384″ show_in_lightbox=”on” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ custom_margin=”40px|||” animation_style=”zoom” animation_direction=”left” animation_intensity_zoom=”5%” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” always_center_on_mobile=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ make_equal=”on” padding_top_bottom_link_1=”true” padding_left_right_link_1=”true” module_class=” et_pb_row_fullwidth” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_image=”off” parallax=”on” width=”100%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” max_width=”100%” max_width_tablet=”100%” max_width_phone=”100%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” make_fullwidth=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.hotelrurallascorchuelas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Puente-Madera-Monfrague.jpg” title_text=”Puente-Madera-Monfrague” show_in_lightbox=”on” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ custom_margin=”40px|||” animation_style=”zoom” animation_direction=”left” animation_intensity_zoom=”5%” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” always_center_on_mobile=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_enable_color=”off” background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”initial” background_position=”bottom_left” background_blend=”multiply” custom_padding=”6vw|6%|6vw|6%” custom_padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” custom_padding_phone=”|||” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” padding_phone=”|||” padding_tablet=”|10%||10%||true” padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Kumbh Sans|700|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”15px” text_line_height=”1.3em” global_colors_info=”{}”]

From the stone bridge you can return to Villarreal de San Carlos along the right bank of the stream. After about 250 metres you have to cross a small wooden footbridge that leads to a broad path. Follow this path on the right side of the stream to the bridge over the Malvecino stream, 600 metres further on. The bridge is made of wood with slate pillars, and is surrounded by alders and ash trees. It is a cool place where you can rest. The climb up to Villarreal is 1.1 km long and very easy. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Kumbh Sans|700|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”42px” text_line_height=”1.3em” global_colors_info=”{}”]
