Jewish Cemetery –
Cachón Arroyo Niebla
Description of the route
This is a hilly route with various routes to choose from.
We start the route at the Berrozana Gate, going down Manuel Bermejo Hdez street to discover the Jewish Cemetery, from where we can see a spectacular landscape, with the narrowing of the river Jerte in the background and in the opposite direction the Convent of San Vicente Ferrer converted into a Parador de turismo and which was once the first Synagogue in the city.
From the Cemetery we go down to the river, where we can see the San Lázaro Bridge that crosses the Jerte and the Church of San Lázaro. From here there are three possible routes; one would be to continue along the right bank of the river, passing by a mill; another would be to cross and continue along the left bank until we reach the Parque del Cachón; a third would be to return along Manuel Bermejo Hdez. street and continue along the Ronda Higuerillas until we reach the Trujillo Bridge, thus skirting the wall, arriving at the archaeological excavation of Santo Tomé.
From there we arrive at the Parque del Cachón, where we can see Sorolla’s viewpoint (from this point the painter painted the picture “El Mercado”) and we can continue along the walk along the Arroyo Niebla.
Distance: 4 kilometres
Time: 1 hour
Difficulty: low
