Udforsk Piedra-klosteret og kongeriget Aragon fra Madrid
Beskrivelse
Kan du forestille dig at opdage skjulte vandfald, et århundredgammelt kloster og en middelalderfæstning på en enkelt dag uden folkemængderne? Hos os er det muligt, for der vil være maksimalt otte rejsende, der deler oplevelsen, som var vi venner for livet. Fra Madrid tager vi til Piedra-klosteret, et naturparadis med vandfald, stier og drømmende landskaber. Derefter går vi ind i klosteret for at rejse århundreder tilbage i tiden og lære om munkenes liv og deres vinfremstillingstradition. Ved middagstid stopper vi i Calatayud, hvor autentisk aragonesisk køkken venter os. Hver rejsende vil kunne vælge deres menu på en lokal restaurant (hver betaler for sit eget forbrug), men vi deler bordet og latteren. Om eftermiddagen besøger vi Parador de Sigüenza, en imponerende middelalderfæstning, hvor vi skåler med en drink og nyder dens legendariske atmosfære. Vi vender tilbage til Madrid efter en unik og intim dag fyldt med uforglemmelige øjeblikke.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Vi mødes ved O'Donnell Gate med alle medlemmerne af gruppen. Derfra begynder vi vores rejse til stenklosteret
Ankomst til naturparken Monasterio de Piedra - 10:45. Ved ankomsten begynder vi vores eventyr i den historiske have, omgivet af vegetation og et landskab fyldt med vandløb og søer. Dette miljø vil formidle den ro og fred, som kun kan opnås ved at være fordybet i naturen. Lidt efter lidt kommer vi ind i skoven, hvor stier og vandrestier fører os til imponerende vandfald, og vi krydser huler og grotter, der åbner vejen for os i den aragonesiske bjergkæde. Da ruten er cirkulær med en let stigning og ikke er mere end 4 km lang, vil den være af lav fysisk krævende karakter. Halvvejs på turen tager vi en pause for at få lidt væske og spise en lækker snack.
Vi spiser frokost på en lokal restaurant, der serverer typisk regional mad. Ikke inkluderet i oplevelsens pris.
Når vi når de imponerende mure i cistercienserklosteret fra det 13. århundrede, lærer vi, hvordan munkene levede, går gennem klostergangen og lærer endda om dets traditioner og skikke, der er fyldt med historie og mystik.
Afgang til Madrid. Vi efterlader dem på samme sted, hvor vi hentede dem.

No good this company is terrible. They canceled our tour after I went to bed by email. No call even though they had my number. A guy emailed said not enough people and a woman emailed and said it was weather related. This left us with no plans for the last day of our trip. It took me getting a hold of Viator to get my refund. They still haven’t responded to my messages. No apology nothing, ruined the final leg of our trip.
They canceled due to not enough people for the tour. Cant say if it was good or not, but would have loved to go.
This is a must and worth dedicating an entire day. Book it you won’t regret it! The waterfalls are amazing and beautiful - it is a very quiet location with not many tourists, making it that much more memorable, to be able to take in the peace and quiet and take pictures without Crowds or having to queue. What really elevated the experience was our guide. Andres was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about the history and ecology of the area. We learned not just about the monastery itself, but also about how the park was transformed over time into the natural wonder it is today. The pacing was perfect—structured enough to cover the highlights, but with plenty of time to take photos and soak it all in. The highlight for me was walking behind one of the larger waterfalls—a surreal, almost cinematic moment that I won’t forget anytime soon. It’s the kind of place that feels both peaceful and awe-inspiring at the same time. If you’re considering a day trip from Madrid and want something beyond the typical city sights, this is absolutely worth it. Comfortable shoes are a must, and be prepared for a bit of walking—but every step is worth it. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves nature, history, or simply discovering hidden gems in Spain. Andres carried waters, oranges and chocolate for the family as a snack after all the hiking which was so appreciated and spent time getting to know us.
It is an incredibly beautiful place for nature lovers who wish to spend a family day without problems
What a fabulous experience!!!!! Amazing place, fantastic combination of history and nature, and very knowledgeable guides! Pablo and Chris made this trip memorable for us - felt like we were on a trip with friends! Highly recommend!!!!!!!
This was a really great experience! We went with kids ranging from 9-14 and every single one of our group enjoyed it. This tour ended up being a highlight of our trip to Spain! Hiking was fun to see the waterfalls and we really enjoyed the monastery tour a lot. Andres is a great guide! I absolutely recommend this tour and make sure to request that Andres guide you for the day. We were glad we went!
