Villafria marks the end of the reservoir road walking. From here, the route is mostly off-road. No services in the village itself.
The Road
After Villafria, the walking improves significantly. Two highlights on the way to Olea: first, the Roman ruins of Juliobriga with a museum — the church bell tower overlooking the ruins is worth climbing. Then, after a 200 m ascent through beech forest to the Pena Cutral, a descent to the Romanesque church of San Pedro de Cervatos, with its famous erotic capitals and corbels whose purpose is still debated by art historians.
