Espolón promenade

The Espolón connects city and river at a different pace from the narrow old-town streets. This landscaped promenade lets you walk among trees and architecture, pause and look towards the Arlanzón without leaving the centre. Rather than searching only for the next monument, notice how the perspective changes near a bridge or when looking back towards the façades. It is an everyday walking place, not merely a visitor connection. Choose a stretch suited to your available time and leave space for people walking or resting. Adjust your pace on wet ground. From here, cross towards the Museum of Human Evolution or return to Santa María gateway.
