• In Vilches, El Piélago is a spectacular spot that the Junta de Andalucía declared a Natural Monument in 2003.
  • The landscape is made up of great granite boulders over which the waters of the Guarrizas river leap, forming two lovely waterfalls.
  • The Via Augusta ran through it, linking the capital of the Roman Empire with Gades, today’s Cádiz.
  • The Vadollano bridge, built in the 3rd century BC, was part of that road. It was built to cross the drops of El Piélago, making it easier to carry the metal from the mines of Sierra Morena.
