Acueducto de Peña Cortada, Roman aqueduct in Calles and Tuéjar, Spain.

The Peña Cortada Aqueduct extends through four municipalities, featuring bridges and tunnels carved into rock formations across the Valencian mountainous terrain.

Built in the first century AD, this Roman water transport system originally stretched for 28.6 kilometers, connecting multiple settlements in the Los Serranos region.

The aqueduct received recognition as an Asset of Cultural Interest in 2004, highlighting its importance in understanding Roman engineering and water management systems.

Visitors can explore the aqueduct through a 10-kilometer circular hiking trail that follows the Tuéjar River and passes through the Rambla de Alcotas.

The Barranco de la Cueva del Gato Bridge section stands 18 meters tall with three arches, spanning 36 meters across the mountain landscape.
