The Riofrío Fishing Dam is a quiet and charming place located downstream of the Ríofrío, in the Peñaparda region, near Ciudad Rodrigo. This dam, which gives rise to the natural pools, is an ideal corner for the summer months. Here you can enjoy a refreshing swim in its waters while you surround yourself with a picturesque and relaxing landscape.

At this point you will find a Roman stone cross. It is also a high point where there are some good views. It's just off the road but worth a visit.

Torre de Don Miguel is a time capsule of medieval Spain, with a narrow labyrinthine street lined with a spectacular church and synagogue and Islamic architecture. One of the jewels of the Sierra de Gata.
