La Virgen De la Vega offers a view of the Santuario Virgen de la Vega. The Baroque building was constructed in 1751 by the master builder Juan Escuder. It has three naves; its vaults are decorated with murals. If, when considering a place, you are interested not only in a year but also in its architectural form and artistic design, these aspects can be clearly considered separately. The main festival in honor of the Virgen de la Vega takes place every year from September 7 to 10. This fixed period complements the architectural aspect with a recurring date in the annual calendar.

Culture

Architecture and the festival calendar focus on different aspects. You can incorporate the historical details of the sanctuary into your personal travel plans independently of the annually fixed festival period. The religious building, its layout and the wall decorations together form a self-contained cultural perspective, while the September date marks a clearly defined occasion in time.

Hiking

The Sendero Local 4: San Miguel begins at the Santuario de la Virgen de la Vega. From La Virgen De la Vega, you can also hike the entire Senda Fluvial Río Alcalá. Its route leads downhill from La Virgen De la Vega along the riverbank, through several gardens and a dense riparian forest. At the Cascada del Molino, swimming is possible in the pool below the weir. For your personal planning, the paths mentioned can be distinguished by their starting points, routes and landscape features. The combination of riverbank, gardens, riparian forest and swimming spot describes different facets of a hike without merging them into a single trail section.

The PR-TE 26 connects La Virgen De la Vega with Cabra de Mora and follows the Río Alcalá. The trail passes through the narrow Cañón del río Alcalá, with footbridges, steps and handrails. The second stage leads from Valdelinares to Virgen de la Vega. The starting point of the PR-TE 26 is in La Virgen De la Vega, next to Hotel La Vega. When planning your route, you can consider a connection between places, an individual stage and a canyon-shaped section as different forms alongside one another. This keeps both the route along the river and the trail's structural features and stage designation independently identifiable.

El Castillejo is a golf course in La Virgen De la Vega. Those who want to combine different interests for a day can consider culture, riverside paths, hiking connections and golf as separate topics.
