The best walks and hikes around Figueruelas

Alagón is a town with a rich past, evident in its Mudéjar church of San Pedro Apóstol, built on the site of a former mosque and famous for its 16th-century altarpiece. Strolling through the old town, you can also see the former Jesuit college next to the church of San Antonio de Padua. It's a good place to stop along your route, with all the necessary amenities and a tourist office for further information.

The Jubo Bridge has a fascinating history spanning from the 18th century to the 21st century. Originally, its construction began in the 18th century, but due to the War of Independence, it remained unfinished for many years. Finally, in more recent times, it was completed with a wooden and steel walkway. This bridge is a pedestrian crossing over the Imperial Canal of Aragon, located near the town of Pinseque and a few meters from the Santa Emilia beacon.

The Hermitage of the Virgen de la Ola is a Marian sanctuary located in Peramán, an old hamlet in the municipality of Bárboles in the valley of the Jalón River. Built in the 17th century, it has a rectangular floor plan. Its exterior has been renovated with exposed brick and has a small tower without bells. It is located on the banks of the Jalón River and is a place of Marian devotion.

The hermitage of the Virgen de la Ola is the church of the disappeared town of Peramán (whose name is still used to name the area). There are hardly any remains of the disappeared town, but the hermitage has been marked on maps since the 17th century at least. The current building is surely the result of several reconstructions during the last two centuries. (http://www.sipca.es/censo/1-INM-ZAR-015-043-003/Ermita/de/la/Virgen/de/la/Ola.html)

This infrastructure dates back to the end of the 18th century and there are some legends about this unfinished passage of the Imperial Canal of Aragon. One of them says that it sank when a car passed by, and that it was no longer repaired, and others say that they started it at the Canal works and it remained unfinished. The Aragonese section of the Imperial Canal of Aragon was inaugurated on September 20, 2000 as a Site of Cultural Interest and Site of Cultural Interest in the category of Historic Site. To enjoy this great work and to understand it is to understand a part of our best history that seems to be latent in our memory.

Historic arch bridge built in the 18th century to cross the Imperial Canal of Aragon. Nice picture to photograph!

The hermitage of the Virgen de la Ola is a 17th-century sanctuary located in the uninhabited Peramán, on the banks of the Jalón River. It is a temple with a rectangular floor plan, which has a very renovated exterior, with exposed brick, and a small tower at the foot without bells. The tradition of Nª Sª de la Ola considers that this construction could be built on the ruins of the old medieval monastery of the Order of Fontevrault, where the image of the Virgin Mary was found. This had been dragged by the strong waves of the Jalón River, hence, it is known as the Virgin of the Wave. The interior of the hermitage, with sober decoration, housed in the presbytery the carving of the Virgen de la Ola from the 14th century. However, the original figure is going to disappear as a result of a theft, so the current size is from a recent factory. All this makes this hermitage one of the two main pilgrimage points of the Ribera Alta del Ebro. Every year the residents of Bárboles, Grisén and Pinseque make a pilgrimage during the month of May to this sanctuary to honor the Virgin
