Driving the scenic Estrecho de Priego

Estrecho de Priego is the name of a very scenic canyon located in the heart of Cuenca province in the eastern part of the autonomous community of Castile-La Mancha, in Spain. It’s one of the most scenic canyon roads of Spain.

Estrecho de Priego

Tucked away within the Serranía de Cuenca Natural Park, the road through the canyon is called CM-2023. Carved by the Escabas river, the canyon features 400m vertical walls. Running along the Escabas river, the road is totally paved in pretty good conditions. It’s a quiet road without traffic through a place whose view impresses any lover of nature. The passengers really enjoy the scenery but the driver must remain concentrated on the road.

The road is 7,6 km (4.72 miles) long, running west-east from Priego to Cañamares. It’s especially dangerous after rains. The road has a big risk of rock slides.
