Castle of Arab construction, located near the Tavizna River on the road that goes from the forest to Ubrique. The path begins parallel to the Tavizna River and we must cross to the other bank and climb along a wire fence. The last stretch of your life to the castle is made of small, loose stone and is slippery.

Incredible route, somewhat hard for older people but the experience has been formidable

The views are more beautiful than what remains of the Castle, practically demolished. The ascent is a bit complicated and is not signposted. Good route for hiking but if you don't know it or don't have the Track on an app you may get lost, it is not signposted. It's worth getting to the top.

El castillo está en ruinas.Apenas hay unos cuantos muros en pie.Yo fui allí de senderismo y hay que subir bastante para llegar hasta él

Nice views from the top but not really worth the trek in July. All the paths were over grown and the were all spikey bushes or thorns. We pushed through out of pure stubbornness.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
