Penacaballera

Penacaballera is located some 110 miles (177 kilometers) from Madrid, the national capital.

Visiting just one town or city, no matter how popular, will only ever furnish you with a narrow window into the wider personality of a region. So try to set aside some time to savour Castilla - Leon's other cultural and natural attractions. La Alberca, lies approximately 17 miles (27 kilometers) to the southeast. Head there to visit the Plaza Mayor and Parque Natural de Las Batuecas.

Plasencia, is another good spot to explore. It is approximately 25 miles (40 kilometers) from Penacaballera and offers a number of interesting attractions, like Parque de la Isla, Casa del Dean and Plaza de San Nicolas. Plasencia Cathedral, Parque de los Pinos and Plaza Mayor are also worth investigating while you are here.

Spirituality is a pivotal element of every place's DNA, so why not visit the area's monasteries and other places of worship.

When you hear the call of the wild, do as the locals do and go rock climbing or mountain climbing. Castilla - Leon has plenty of outdoor options for those who enjoy water. Boating and sailing are just two of the popular pastimes here.

When it's time to leave this special place, bid a fond Adiós (farewell) to the people you've enjoyed getting to know and the great places you've seen.
