This route offers an essential experience through the heart of the Highlands of Soria, connecting two places filled with identity and memory: San Pedro Manrique and Sarnago. A round trip that invites you to pedal at a leisurely pace, letting the landscape set the rhythm.

The pedaling is comfortable and fluid, ideal for enjoying the surroundings and the changing light over the fields and gentle hills that define this region.
