Soria
HA Hoteles
Soria is a land of endless horizons that inspired Bécquer and Machado. Far from the hustle and bustle, Soria offers a true escape through its romantic landscapes, its intact Romanesque heritage and a peace that can only be found in cities that cherish their essence.
At HA Hoteles, we want you to experience it from the heart of Almazán, one of the most beautiful villages in Soria. At HA Puerta de la Villa, a small 11-room hotel on the banks of the Duero River, with a restaurant, café and its own terrace. A charming rural spot to enjoy nature, hiking, mycology or simply the pleasure of doing nothing.
Must-sees
What you cannot miss in Málaga
Almazán and the Duero
Almazán, the village of stone and brick, welcomes you with its arcaded Plaza Mayor and the church of San Miguel. From HA Puerta de la Villa, the Duero River flows right beside you. A walk along its bank, especially at sunset, is one of those plans you will not forget.
Cañón del Río Lobos
A natural park sculpted by water and wind. Trails, griffon vultures soaring overhead and the Templar hermitage of San Bartolomé hidden among the canyon walls. One of the most spectacular landscapes in Castilla y León.
Numancia
The symbol of resistance. The ruins of this Celtiberian-Roman city are a must-see to understand the history of Spain. Walking through its streets, imagining the life of its inhabitants and their struggle against Rome, is a journey into the past.
Laguna Negra and Picos de Urbión
“Its waters are sweet here, and in the lagoon salty…” The Laguna Negra, immortalised by Machado, is a dreamlike glacial amphitheatre. Surrounded by pine forests and high peaks, it is the perfect place for a day out with family or friends.
Monastery of San Juan de Duero
On the outskirts of Soria’s capital, this ruined monastery surprises with its cloister, where Romanesque, pointed and horseshoe arches blend together. A mystical corner on the banks of the Duero that invites calm.
Burgo de Osma
One of the most beautiful towns in Spain. Its Plaza Mayor, its University, its Cathedral and its cobbled historic centre transport you to another era. Ideal for getting lost without rushing and eating wonderfully in any of its restaurants.
Hiking and mycology
Soria is a hiker’s paradise. From the Fuentona de Muriel to the Cañón del Río Lobos, the options are endless. And if you come in autumn, mushrooms and black truffles become the stars of the local gastronomy.
Route of the Red Villages
A tour of towns such as Berlanga de Duero or Calatañazor, where the reddish adobe, castles and main squares seem frozen in time. Deep and authentic Soria.
Savour
Soria tastes like tradition
Soriano cuisine is all about produce, wood-fired ovens and recipes passed down through generations. Here you eat well, you eat properly.
Torreznos and migas
The torrezno from Soria is legendary: crispy, juicy, impossible to eat just one. Accompanied by shepherd’s migas, you have the perfect starter for any meal.
Mushrooms and black truffle
Soria is mushroom country. In season, restaurants fill up with dishes featuring boletus, saffron milk caps and the coveted black truffle. A luxury within reach of few.
Suckling lamb and Ribera wine
Roast suckling lamb cooked in a wood-fired oven is the star dish. Washed down with a Ribera del Duero or Rueda wine, it is a perfect pairing. For dessert, the yemas de Almazán (egg yolk sweets) or Sorian punch.
