The first thing of all is to plan your stay. How will you travel alone, with friends, as a couple?

If your thing is to travel in a group, we recommend rural houses in Huete. Start your adventure in La Alcarria in this cozy town where you can obtain additional details for your stay at the Tourist Office, located in the Monasterio de la Merced in Plaza de la Merced s/n.

Visit to the Roman Mines of Lapis Specularis "La Cueva del Sanabrio"

Despite its imposing name, this visit is essential in Cuenca. Lapis specularis, the first crystal in history, is found in one of the most impressive mining complexes of the Roman Empire.
