A natural lookout and the oldest village of Ambroz-Cáparra, located on a steep slope in the Tras la Sierra mountains.

Segura de Toro is home to the magnificent remains of the Vettones, an ancient pre-Roman people who inhabited the western part of the peninsula. Two stone boars stand majestically in the main square, whilst a stele with inscriptions and carvings adorns the entrance to the village. Discover more vestiges of this ancient civilisation on the SL-CC 101 Lagares Celtas Trail that runs along a stream.

Wander through its steep, winding streets adorned with charming corners and flower-draped façades and discover the remnants of the ancient Templar castle walls.

During the summer months, don’t miss the natural pool fed by the waters of the Garganta Grande, an ideal place to relax and cool off.

You can hike the La Burila trail, a loop trail that connects Aldeanueva del Camino and Segura de Toro along the old Ruta de la Plata. A trip to Segura de Toro wouldn’t be complete without visiting the Castaños del Temblar – a stunning group of five majestic chestnut trees designated as Noble Trees of Extremadura. Bear in mind that the Castaños del Temblar Trail is closed in autumn.

Cap off your visit to Segura de Toro at the Canchal de la Cigüeña overlook which offers spectacular views of Ambroz-Cáparra, or if you prefer, climb up to the Picute peak for amazing views of the sunset.
