It is a part of the Sendero del Río Mundo where it meets the road to the Talave reservoir. A very quiet path among the typical vegetation of the area, with views of the river and the surrounding mountains. The road in some parts is not in very good condition.

Among its heritage, several churches and sanctuaries stand out: Archpriestal Church of Santa María de la Asunción, Conventual Church of Nuestra Señora de los Ángeles - Franciscan Fathers, Sanctuary of Nuestra Señora del Rosario, Convent of the Poor Clares (House of Culture) etc. Stop by the Plaza del Anfiteatro to see the old water mill and have a drink. The celebrations of Holy Week (Tamborada) have since 2007 the title "Fiesta of International Tourist Interest".

If you pass through this town I recommend you visit its castle, which is located on top of the Peña del Castillo. It is an old fortress, important during the Middle Ages due to its strategic location. Among the buildings in the town of Peñas de San Pedro, the parish church of Nuestra Señora de la Esperanza stands out.
