Camero Viejo & the Leza Canyon — Logroño to San Román de Cameros.
A quiet ride into the Camero Viejo, the emptiest of the Rioja sierras, southeast of Logroño. The LR-250 leaves the Ebro plain and climbs the Leza valley past Soto en Cameros into the deep limestone Cañón del río Leza, whose cliffs shelter one of Spain's largest colonies of griffon vultures, ending in the highland village of San Román de Cameros.
