Today Day 13: Belorado-San Juan de Ortega begins closely near the N120 eventually crossing onto a dirt path into Tosantos.
Heading out of Tosantos you come across the 12th century Ermita de Nuestra Señora de Peña, which has literally been dug out of the mountain.
Continuing on your way from Belorado to San Juan de Ortega is a small incline to Villafranca Montes de Oca. Here you begin a long ascent to the Oca Mountains. Crossing through gorgeous woodlands of fragrant oak, juniper, ash, and pine trees. The last mountain range before the Meseta, taking you all the way to San Juan de Ortega.
San Juan de Ortega is a beautiful small hamlet in the middle of the mountains. Here you will find Iglesia de San Juan de Ortega. The church is an example of late Romanesque art, constructed during the 12th and 13th centuries.
