Sax Fortress
Highlight • Castle
Located on the CidCT route: Camino del Cid Cyclotourista - Route of Castles in the Historically Contested Border Region between the Moors and the Kingdoms of Castile, Valencia, and Aragon.
Camino del Cid - Under the name "El Cid," Spain's knight Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar became a symbol of the Reconquista. The Castilian nobleman fought against Moorish rulers and Christian rivals in the 11th century. He never lost a single battle; the Moors respectfully called him Alsayyed (Lord of the Leaders), which later became "El Cid." The Spanish, however, always referred to him as "El Compeador" (The Warrior).

Comments
Head to the town of Sax and the castle to get started.
After crossing the railway tracks the walk becomes interesting with pretty steep paths in the countryside.
