Mirador del Valle, Toledo
Toledo, Spain
The classic view of Toledo across the Tagus gorge, from the Carretera de Circunvalación south of the river. Small lay-bys fill at sunset; the ring road is fine for motorhomes if you park carefully.
The Mirador del Valle lies on a stretch of the Carretera de Circunvalación ring road (also called Ronda del Valle) on the edge of Toledo, south of the Tagus. From here you get the classic view of the old town, which stands on a hill above the loop of the Tagus; the Alcázar and the cathedral are among the landmarks you can pick out.
It makes a good short photo stop on a drive around the city, without having to enter the narrow streets of the old town. Stop and park only where the signs allow it. A guidebook recommends sunrise or sunset for the special light.
