Las Merindades | Castile and Leon

Discover the hidden stories and landscapes of Las Merindades, an unexplored region in Burgos. From the last bell ringers to the Neolithic game of bowling, and the magical Puente de Dios, known as the «Sistine Chapel of nature.»
Delve into the galleries of the Ojo-Guareña karst complex, and don’t miss the Hermitage of San Bernabé. Stroll beneath the arches of the Monastery of Santa María de Rioseco, restored by volunteers, and explore the Romanesque art that defines Castilla y León through its churches.
Exploring Las Merindades is like stepping into a different, green, and mountainous Castilla, showcasing the diversity of civilizations that once lived here, offering a unique cultural heritage.
