Toros de Guisando Review

The Toros de Guisando, or stone bulls, dating from the 6th century BC, are thought to have been used as territorial border markers for a Celtiberian tribe. Just three of many such bulls once scattered around the Castilian countryside (they take their name from the nearby Cerro Guisando, or Guisando Hill), they're now a symbol of the Spanish Tourist Board. To see these taurine effigies, head back east from Arenas on the C501; it's a pleasant drive through countryside bordered to the north by the Gredos range.
